Baxter,
Yes it looks like an entry point to the site to me.. and that sort of makes it blind..
Simple fix... make the text a notch smaller.. and move it up directly under
"FTV Girls Features New Exclusive Girl Videos & Photos Daily"
<BR> instad of <P>
That would make you "Enter" link clearly the entry point and you should have no probs then.
Big Pics.. - always a tough one.. but there are arguments in both directions.
big pics(>800 long side) = more bandwidth usage for you = $$
big pics = slower for the surfer - they get pissed - they leave your site - bye bye sales;( = <$$
big pics = satisfied surfer = no sale as he can get them all from your free sites, why should he sign up?
Pics that are 800 long side are perfect IMO, not too big, but still big enuff for the surfer to be happy.
