from a quick look, I would change the color of the links to differentiate between normal text

XHTML fails, CSS as well, although you are close..

Like the color scheme, the text expands well, could use a little bit of margin on the outsides though.

Love the cute search box theme integration. Very funny.

Deeply dislike the "Best viewed in".. It was bad for IE, and its bad for Firefox. Code to standards, and let browsers make the mistakes. :)

Overall, I give a C, but with validation it would be a B. Solid work.

a bit cluttered for my taste, but other than the comments already made, nice job :)

I agree with the cluttered comment, I'd say maybe a 5 pixel MORE margin on your boxes.

Also, convert to divs, I don't see any tabular data in that page. ;)

Good site overall, keepup the good work.

I would love to convert to 100% css layout, but I dont know if i'm that good yet. Maybe in the future.... who knows.

- I spaced it out another 5px ... lemme know what you think.

Thanks for the advice!
