The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.

The site looks dated. The graphics are not as crisp or clean as they could be. The jaggies are there.
I think that as a buiness sight you miss the mark. It looks like a toy site.
The other problem is, the page is slow. I am using a Cable modem, with a 800 mhz processor, and the whole page was slow.
For business you would want fast loading and to the point. There is not any initial text which the person should read upon entering the site.
There is a lot of touch up work that could be done to make it much better.

I've often thought to ask someone who builds explosive devices how they can cope...

This is a page where I am probably a bit more impressed by the coding than the looks of it.
The jaggies I can see are mostly along the north shore of the land, though it is probably hard to do much about it, since you have them separated from the background. The same is true for the boat. But is it really necessary to have the map separate from the water? Or tge castles separated from the map, for that matter? - couldn't you merge those with the map and make a smoother transition? And with the text against the water also.
The flags annoys me. They move too fast, and too much unlike real flags, even for a cartoonish look.
The blue squares that comes up when you mouseover the words does not fit with the rest of the site at all. And though the site itself does feel un-businesslike, I think you would still benefit from making it more consistent. Maybe using some aged-paper/parchment sort of look on those squares that pops up? It would be even less business-like, but still more consistent.
Making it look more pro... that is tough with this look. As it is now I think it looks like something in between - not realistic, and yet not completely cartoonish. Maybe going for one or the other would be good. Maybe some different colours could add a more professional look to it also.. a bit darker perhaps, and less of the "baby blue".
The site loaded fast enough on my 56k modem, so that was no problem.

you have a case of the "sticky keys" in the internet mouseover for 2 words.
what exactly is this company doing? i dont speak french. the front page is in english, but i havent the faintest clue as to what your business is since none of the interior pages are in english (oops! only the french section is done, take you to the french site map! makes no sense to me as an english speaking person).
i am getting a little irritated with people who make sites that do not go down to 800x600 resolution. thats my default res. it is the least stressful res for me to look at with my 15" monitor (have commercially packed systems started shipping with bigger monitors? i have no clue). also, most people dont know that you can change the resolution, and 800x600 is the default res that win98 or better is set to.
asp and frames for the interior pages? why?? << unprofessional! i see no reason at all to use frames unless you are centering something (like a flash movie or yuckie splash page). asp should have include functions. use them. browsers like lynx arent happy with frames pages.
NEVER NEVER use font size=3. that translates into font size=3pt in unix.
i hope your links at the bottom are getting redesigned in the same style. even though it has the same domain, they look like completely different sites.
