Elite Income Group

It was a quickie design done with, yes, tables, and I personally have no problem with that, though I prefer pure CSS when I have the time. I don't have the time on this one, so it was cut up in Fireworks and imported into Dreamweaver.
Anyway, I would still like the HTML it to validate. I still need to give it a doctype, but leaving that aside from now, I'd like comments on both the design itself, and how to get the embedded Flash tags to validate. The tags in there were, of course, automatically generated by Dreamweaver.

That link's not right, Tim. Oh, wait, nevermind, it just took a minute to transfer it from zurl.

This would be great if it weren't for that lime green in the background. Way too garish. Tone that down a lot. Or try white instead.
On the navbar, it looks like the text is apiexel or two too high. I'm not sure if that's just an optical illusion or not though. Of course, you could do that navbar with CSS. Much easier to edit and text links are better for SEO too.
It looks good. I like the header and logo a lot, the navbar looks nice. The overall layout is good. I am a little unclear on what this company does. I suppose it's some sort of financial managment company but there's really no specifics at all. I see that I can request an interview - for what??

Yeah I think the green really works well. I love websites out there that dont use too many different colours and 10 different fonts - it just looks like a mess.
But no... the Elite Income Group website is fresh, has different shades of green that blend together well, and the flash animation is nice.
Good work.

Looks good, very basic... Covers a wide audience.
The music however doesn't loop right.. it's off by a couple hundred milli-seconds. E-mail me and I can record your music into a loopable sound file if you can't fix it within the website software. only takes a second.
It made my bookmarks.

I don't think flash fails under HTML Trans (not sure about strict as never use flash)
The green and blue at the very bottom is bright, the flash I can't see.
The bottom section on internal pages seems to be missing something, will you be putting a copyright or design by you or anything? I think it needs it just to give the layout an end.
Not to sure about the landscape picture, it takes up a bit of room, pushing the content down abit, tried put the picture as the logo background? The more I look at the picture the more out of place it looks, I think it's because the sky isn't at the top, I mean the banner is above it

A few quick points
...the green background is a little to much green > try grey or white.
...the flash animation....why is it there a empty field....looks like a farming type site.
...the sucess stories....add spacing between stories...great to have the pics with the stories.

since tim hasen't responded in a week, I will assume I am wasting my time with this post... but I'll try anyway.
When I first opened the site I really liked it, but eventually the green did start to get too bright. If the user wasn't expected to stare at the screen for so long watching the animation they would probably have no problems with the green background, but that's not the case here.
The other suggestion I have is to have the last frame of the flash link to the interview page. This would save you from directing people to click a different link. It would be easier for the user if you said "Click here" for an interview (or whatever verbiage you choose).
Overall it is a nice looking site that I would not hesitate to do business with.

Never assume you're wasting your time. I'm just temporarily working on other projects, and don't respond to every single post.
Thanks for all the feedback so far. I will take it, along with my client's feedback, under advisement.
