Not a bad start though what struck me straight away was "works best in IE" im assuming this is because the text in the header uses IE specific effects, this would be best made into a graphic or made sure the text was easily visible in the popular browsers, such as firefox.

The bottom line doesn't stretch wide enough if the browser is expanded too far. If it's shrunk too much, the text wraps through the bottom line.

The menu drop downs cause the menu to jump a little in IE6. Looks OK in firefox.

The counter in the lower left doesn't really fit in with the feel of the rest of the page. If it's mostly for your own info, I'd just rely on back end stats.

Also, I'd definitely avoid anything being IE only. You don't want to force people using other browsers to have to bring up IE for your site - you're more likely to just lose those users. At the very least it gives the impression of sloppy/lazy coding (not that you are sloppy or lazy - it just gives that impression).

Anyways, I do like the look and feel of the site. It's nice and clean and easy to navigate. Nice looking logo picture!

Hello,

I think you have a great start here, some more filler content would make the site look more full (especially on the about us pages). Also, as others have said, the header is a little off in Firefox.

I said it works best in IE because in firefox the header is all messed up, Thank so much for the feedback guys!

One thing that might be causing problems are conflicts between embedded CSS and other CSS in your external file. You might want to try moving it all to the external file to make it easier to work with.
