your pictures aren't 3kb, and i was loading them for the first time. 
i don't think the size of your pictures should have been that big of a
deal however, and certainly shouldn't have caused ie to time out for
me.  this part is well beyond being out of my league, though.

when you center links, i don't expect more links to jump out of the
SIDE of those links.  your main menu (where you have the top links
centered) doesn't throw me off when it jumps out because the links
underneath are in the middle of the top menu.  it still "fits" to me.

having a centered menu with popups underneath that are also centered
that *then* have *sideways* jumping out throws me off because the text
i was just looking at was centered.  i could just be weird.  like i
said, this might be a personal way of thinking so take it how you
will.

probably.  :)
