Just to add a little extra to what Michael mentioned...

The site scrolls vertically a little to much IMHO perhaps cut a few of the breaks in the HTML so it doesnt scroll to much in the browser.

Also, the banners and counters on the bottom, personally, i would choose to lose them all, they are traffic leaks ultimately which could potentially take a paying surfer away from your site.... to theirs.

I would also make the join link open in the same window instead of a new one, thats just another of my personal preferences but, if you do that, youll be able to pop a blur console on the tour if the join page link is clicked and from there, you'll be able to direct non-sale surfers to another of your sites or, one of your sponsors.

Other than that, i like the layout a lot
