I do understand what you are saying though and I will see about making the header section smaller. .
I understand...focus on the selling pages. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have a nice book "cover", tho.

I was thinking about moving your product pictures higher up on the initial view of your home page (instead of scrolling vertically to see pictures) by moving your "We just launched..." and "Feel free to contact us..." sections after the products. For instance (top down):

header
text
pictures

Generally, "contact us" links are at the bottom of the page. Forums/blogs could probably be anyhere on the page. My personal preference is on the upper lefti have mine on the upper left as it is on my skateboard page (how do people read? top-down, left-right)

Not sure if I have the latest flash. I have an ancient laptop which I try to limit installing extraneous stuff. Yours is the first site ever which prompted me to download.

Good job, all-around!
