Hey,
Not a bad site. Maybe you could make the links a little more distinctive with a rollover effect or something to show they are links.

Hmmm.... I don't like the logo that much. Agreed with the comment about the links. Also, definitely use some font other than the default current one. I suggest arial or veranda. Finally, the red on the right hand side definitely does not go with the purple... you might want to use a yellow as in the sub-items.

Overall I think the design looks rather amateurish. I don't mind the purple, but it doesn't match the red and the logo should coordinate better with the colour scheme. Think about what colours you're using and whether they go together!
That purple box on the right side looks rather isolated over there. Either make it extend all the way down the page or put those things someplace else.
Those titles really need to be anti-aliased!

Yeah, I agree. Very amateurish in my opinion.
1) You need a new logo. Even though the current one reminds me of the olden days, it doesn't go too good.
2) Colors are the big problem. I don't really like the red on the purple. I would suggest maybe greens?
3) Although the font is okay, if you were to change it I would suggest Verdana over Arial. That's just what I like though. Also- it's hard to tell the links from the regular text. Underline them or something...
Uh, well it seems I just re-said what everyone else did. Oh well

Logo is very bad! It looks like you went to Microsoft Word and just used WordArt and copied it onto your site. The red on the purple is terrible. Put a mouseover color change effect on the left side bar. I think you should put a black line going down the side to seperate the left purple from the white. Change the white to a different color it is plain and ugly. Move the sponser banner thing to the bottom. The purple on the right is totally out of place and get rid of the Tell a Friend if anything put it on the left purple area. Over all the site looks ameaturish and should be re done. Sorry for all that just tellin the truth.
