When I first opened the site, I noticed that something was loading (this always gives me a sinking feeling). However, when it finished, I see it's nothing worse than a little Flash graphic. Fairly well done, in fact. It does give your site some personality, and the text links at the top of the page are good for anyone who might not have Flash, or perhaps doesn't want to use Flash for some other reason. So, that's all good.

However, the eye navigation totally dominates your page. So much so that I doubt anyone would read the text beneath it. It's black on gray, and basically camouflaged. Could you perhaps make a table with two cells and place your cool Flash movie off to the left, and put your informative text in the cell next to it? At least people would have some chance of reading it. You have so much good information down there too - it states what your company does, who you are... That's important stuff - and I have to scroll down to read it all! And that's at 1024x768. If I check it at 800x600, I would never even think to check for more information below the navigation. The Flash navigation movie seems to assume that people already have read this and sends them off to fill in forms or read about your experience. I'd like to see you de-emphasize the Flash graphic and put more emphasis on that text.

I do like the overall feel of the other pages, aside from the index page. You have a theme and keep it going through all of your other pages. I wonder about using "Internet solutions built for small businesses" in the title of your pages. Is this for search engines? I'm not sure those are terms most people would search for. Also simply "Naples" might not work as well as Naples, Florida. In fact, for your index page, I would recommend something along the lines of "Web Development For Small Business in Naples,Florida - Eyemagination"

Those are my thoughts after a quick look around! Hope something in there strikes a chord.
