Ok, some constructive feedback.
  • Lose the entry page. It just wastes my time.
  • The background is too busy. The "HOME"s obscure the text. This happens on every page. Lose it. Switch colors or even just let the background be white.
  • Guestbook link doesn't work.
  • I do like the button effect in the left frame.
  • Your mail link doesn't work.
  • Please, DON'T use a bravenet webchat and forum.
The webchat takes too long to load, and there are plenty of java alternatives that you could host on your real website.
Bravenet forums are to be avoided at all costs. If you can't get MySQL and PHP running on whatever server you're running now, then register a lycos.co.uk tripod account. They'll give you an account with mysql and php. Set up your forum there and just link to it.

Who hosts your website now? Will they allow mySQL and PHP? How much are you paying them?
