Website feedback requested

I'd like to get your honest feedback on my website (see signature
below). Whatever feedback you wish to offer would be great, but things
I'm looking for are:

- Can you easily tell what my business does from the content?

- Does it look professional?

- I prefer content to heavy graphics, but is it too shabby? Does it
need jazzing up?

- What would you do differently?

I plan to add "Buy" buttons and/or a shopping cart once I have product
available. The products are still being developed.

Thanks,

Dave Mikesell

Please take this with a grain of salt, but here's my opinions.

I love the fast loading of the page. I like the navigation near the
top & it is easy to understand. I'm not crazy about the black
background/white text because although it's easy to read on the screen
sometimes it doesn't print well depending on local settings. I think
there's too much text on the main page and not enough on the products
page. Paragraphs of text are too hard to skim. I'd pitch my products
on the main page more (for instance, here's what we make & why you
would want it). Keep the text simple. You can sacrifice erudition
for clarity.

but that's just my opinion....

That's terrific feedback - thank you! It's easy enough to change the
flipflop the text/background colors, and I'll work on beefing up the
product info. Thanks again.
