took roughly 9 seconds on 512kb connection at my work

good design perhaps a bit cramped a couple of margin changes in the css would do the trick.

and make the header buttons mousover on the image not the text (just a small nag)

good design perhaps a bit too image heavy though. but solid.

yes remove frames they really are not required in this situation.

perhaps use of more neutral colours considering the content of the photos you have available ?

???? it wont decrease laoding times as you still have to call to the server ?????

it will simply reduce the the amount of times you refresh the page.

ahah yes, there is sorry i was moving round too fast (probly faster than a regular user would use it and i didnt get at tooltip but yes it is ther no worries

samples dont load full screen unless you didnt wish for this to happen. if so why the gradient backgrounds ?

the site is visually impressive (once it loads) perhaps just condense some of the images if possibel as it currently is taking 6-7secs for each page to load

your alignment of images throughout the site needs work, i.e gallery the header appears skewed as the sliced image is at different positions vertically.

i actually prefer the gallery header rather...

yes it loads fine?

i dont know whether your worried about this but the width could be a problem for some viewers as it is larger thjan 1024px wide.

other than that it looks good

its pretty well made, just a few niggles i.e. change the LINKS to MENU or NAVIGATION as you call this section links but have a page called links this could be confusing.

the contact form change...

perhaps some images ?
