Don't get me wrong. I don't think you should have one of these fancy
dynamic sites. Certainly, I appreciate the simplicity. But you can
update the *look* of your site while still keeping the *simplicity* of
it. You have a distracting and (again, no offense intended) somewhat
ugly background on your pages. Your graphics aren't antialiased and as
such appear quite grainy. Your menu on the side is small and not very
easy on the eyes. Overall, the look is just a bit cheap and ugly. I
definitely think that you should keep things simple as you say, but
getting some better graphic design would help a lot.

Again, I don't want you to take this the wrong way. I don't mean to
overly criticize, just offer my view of things. I've never been there,
but it certainly sounds like a nice place. I believe that if you just
make the web site look a bit more modern, more people will be convinced
to give it a try.

Given that Jay's site actually works and is reasonably easy to navigate, I
have to agree with Jay.

There are plenty of sites that look great, but require a very fast
connection to view, and many more that simply won't allow you to print the
same things that you see. Overall, the Internet seems to be degenerating
rapidly and Jay's site, while not perfect, almost seems like blessed relief.
