Jason,
Nice layout, I liked it, loads fast, but a few thoughts since you asked..
- I would contrast lighten the banner graphic a tad to bring the colors out and lighten it up a bit. Right now to me its awfully dark compared to the smaller row of pics.
- Overkill on the nav links. First I would get rid of either the right side nav banner or the bottom nav banner, not keep both. Personally, I like the right side nav bar much better than the bottom one, but getting rid of the side one would free up screen space for larger articles if applicable.
- I kind of liked the Expedition links on the left side of the main page but one you start navigating around the rest of the sire, there is no direct link to them anywhere else aside from going back to home page. If you are using a non-static navbar on the right side, I would add a link to them on all the other pages that don't have the left side links, or what would be simpler possibly would be to move them to the right with the rest of the nav links.
- OK one last comment, the picture gallery window for repairs, you should increase the height parameter buy a few more pixels. With how many pictures you have for that, the bottom nav links for the Next & Prev pictures is getting ever so slightly trimmed, at least in my browser (IE).
