Tell me about it.
This site was designed before I came aboard, so you aren't hurting my
feelings :-)
I believe that they were/are of the opinion that it has a "Corporate"
audience, that would have faster connections, and hence didn't worry about
the heavy graphics load.
Recently, search engine placement has become a big concern, but I don't know
how long that will last. I'm hoping long enough to redesign the site to be
more user/SE friendly though.
Thanks for the crit.
Shaun
