It looks ok I quite like the layout the only things I spot that may let you down is.

1. You have no meta keywords or description

2. I would change the default blue colour for a link and make it a colour that matches the rest of the site.

(Welcome aboard)

Toon must be running a drop in advice session - he didn't say, you know it'd be nice if people made an introduction first so we know who you are, as for the site, well looks fine to me

OoOoO sorry - I am a professional web designer at Embarc Inc. in Massachusettes, USA. I am by no means a coder - my fiance does the coding - so I will let him know to add the meta keywords and description for SEO purposes.

Thanks for the suggestions for the links - we were thinking of making them all a brown link color like they on the sub-pages for consitency.

I'll talk about the site design.
First: I don't like the colour scheme. The colours are all just too bland, nothing special on the site. When I first open your site, there are just too many colours, I don't know which part is the most important one. The way your site looks now..it's 1.0. Imo you should focus on some clean-stylish design for that kind of site.
Good luck!

Nothing is wrong with 1.0. In fact, 2.0 is complete made up garbage.

The only reason people seem to think 2.0 is a set of design rules, Is because at the time all these social, user driven sites began springing up, Designers were using these types of tricks (glossy/glassy bars/buttons, Simplistic designs)

nevermind... lol

In bulletin "toon" style critique...

1. I like the general idea of the site, but i don't like the edging of the paper? if thats what it is.

2. Dont like the make a donation button, Doesn't match anything else on the site.

I don't hate your site, just giving constructive criticism

I can't really agree with you 100%, Penguin. That of course, it's because my tastes differ from yours, I stated my opinion about the site in the way I think it's correct.
Your opinion is yours and I can't take it :P
