I started this site about a month after Replicant 2 came out...it's been a long time coming. Had some server issues and now I've got a Rochen MVS- very cool, CPanel makes editing code a lot easier. Training was difficult for the client which is why I went with WysiwygPro 3. They mostly take emails from Outlook and content from Word and paste them into their email, so this made it much easier. We're still working on it.

Any specific areas of my site that I'd like feedback on, if any:
Load time- If anyone has any input as to how fast the site loads and suggestions on making it faster, I'd appreciate it.
I can't say thanks enough for the assistance here - all the little things I had to tweek but couldn't figure it out with firebug...Thanks guys. - ----

From Japan, Home page first load 15 seconds, subsequent loads and other pages less than 10 seconds, most under 5.
Wouldn't have know that I could register unless I scrolled all the way down as saw the 'tiny' login link in the footer.
Overall, nice job. - Thanks,
jim

Jem,
Thanks, I remember a site somewhere that evaluates joomla sites based on many different parameters...don't know what it is now.
The way end users can register is to have them sign up for the newsletter- the login at the bottom is for the administrators...
Thanks again - ----
