Default www.mystickitchen.com - redid site, please review again

I finally broke out of frames! Thank you to everyone who made the suggestion!
Now I have a few people telling me that they cannot view some of the content on some of my pages.
I went with a easy "server side includes" header and footer for navagation- but some of the main content you have to scroll way down to see... On my computer, and my husbands, I can see everything fine. is it the different browsers?
I still have a few alignment issues to work out, but I would like to know how to fix this problem, and the overall on the site.
Thanks!

Thank you!
I had a background on my previous site, but I wanted something a little more "clean" and stream-line...
is it too "blah"???

p.s. I really like your site, very cool web designs!
I especially like the wedding one, the way you did the pics!

I think if you do something that is totally washed-out so that it’s mostly undistinguishable but that will add enough texture so as not to leave the page looking flat. I call it a "Hush" of color or in this case texture...

Thanks for looking over my stuff and your encouraging comments...

Cheers

Default Slow loading time

Hi

I spent some time reviewing your site and this is what I have come up with.

Your site takes way too long to load. The average internet user isnt going to wait that long to see your site. I think that is the first thing you should work on. Your site took more than a minute to laod IE6.0 working on a Pentium4 3 GHZ Machine and 268 kbps connection .. Thats way too slow man

Frankly speaking I wasnt too impressed seeing the main page of your site. I waited for so long for it to open and the page in display was disappointing.

I think the whole thing needs to be done up again . Why dont you chose some ready made template and then make your site in it. I suggest removing the counter from the bottom. You can get good templates at www.guistuff.com

Build a provacy policy and site map. That should help you raise you Page rank . You have had only 8,311 visitors since 2001 that itself suggests that your site needs a redesign.

I hope you take this review as constructive criticism ,

If you like please review my website

Have a nice day,
Sparsh

Default Review

You need a little bit of cellpadding on the left and right menus. And the right menu text is going past the menu (the end of the p in Natural Soap is missing).
It looks like there's supposed to be a marquee, but it's stuck.
Is there an image for trivets? Or is it Scented Trivets (mine broke to a new line)?
Why is there just the two images on the home page when you have so many categories on the left? Shouldn't you have an image for each category?
Your left menu is much too long, I would just use the top categories there and then put the subcategories as the left menu on the appropriate pages (you can still do this with includes).
The top, bottom, left and right should stay as close to the same as possible on every page. Where did all the navigation go when I clicked on Keyboard Rest?
You need to use thumbnails or some other method for people to see what you are offering on the first screen without scrolling through everything.
