Yeah, your videos froze up FF for me, definitely an issue there. Otherwise pretty much what MrYum said.

Lose the webmaster links, wrong place to promote them. I wouldn't bother with an exit link at all. Why encourage the surfer to leave your site? Besides, everybody knows where the back button is if they don't like what they see.

Finally, a (small) peeve of mine: Put your warning text inside a table so it doesn't stretch to the width of the monitor. Looks neater. Good job!

See, and I like it when I'm on a huge monitor to have web-sites that can dynamically expand and fill in the sides of the page so there isn't wasted space on the edged. See, you can't please everyone.

Honestly though when I was building sites I made sure to put them in a table that was 600-650 wide so I didn't have problems with the large LL's though.

Site looks clean though.

There's too much emphasis put on your warning text. Decrease the font and use less text. Too much non-keyword related text and you're also reducing your chance of ranking well on search engines.

I would just drop the exit link (I personally consider them blind links). The webmaster links need a bigger font if you're going to keep them, and remember the 3/4 max ad/page rule.

I would replace the webmaster links with links to domain root.

This site's kinda reminds me of your previous free site; be careful not to reuse the same template too often.
