Web site C&C and questions

[dbphotos]

Ok, I have taken the plunge to Creative Motion Design (an advertiser here) and so far I really like them.

Please check out my draft site here: http://bailey7097.c3.cmdwebsites.com/ and let me know what you think overall.

Here are a few specific concerns/questions I have.

1. I'm not a big fan of music generally and I'm only considering using the song that is in place now. (I do have licensing in place.) It kind of fits the feel of the site and is a pretty recognizable song in the motorsports world. And, its easy to turn off.

2. I'm not sure whether to use a splash page before going into the flash presentation or not.

A few bits of additional information.

1. I'm not generally a fan of flash sites for SEO reasons but they run an html mirror site that helps with SEO so I'm not too concerned. Also, SEO has changed so much I'm not sure this is really a big concern any longer.

2. The blog page is not setup, so the link will only take you to a place holder.

3 The only gallery that has any image at this point is the Publications gallery, the others will be blank.

Thanks for looking and any feedback.
