Review site? (warning SLIGHTLY adult-oriented)

Okay, you've been warned.

This is my first attempt at HTML coding etc, so please be gentle.

White Lotus Website

Goals:
- clean and simple interface
- NOT the feel of a trashy porn-site
- elegant, sophisticated, but personal and friendly.

I'd like to refine the portfolio section so the photos pop up in a mini-window, also, so the photos "glow" when you mouseover them, but I have no idea how to do either.

I've decided to elicit some feedback before going further with this anyhow.

Thanks,
Celeste

Achieved:
- clean and simple interface - yes *
- NOT the feel of a trashy porn-site - yes
- elegant, sophisticated, but personal and friendly - yes

* Looks not bad, main comment is why you have the main content in an iframe? well, I know why, but I dont think I like it

Re pop up window, example link below:
Code:
<a href="/Images/black1.jpg" 
onclick="window.open(this.href,'jpg','top=30,left=30,width=350,height=510'); return false;" 
onkeypress="window.open(this.href,'jpg','top=30,left=30,width=350,height=510'); return false;" 
title="View Picture"><img src="/Images/black1.jpg" border="0" width="67" height="269" alt=""></a>
Would you come to Finland ?

I personally think the goals you listed are all achieved but for the horizontal scroll bar that appears if your site was viewed in a 800 * 600 resolution monitor. I think when designing websites the site must be created with a minimum resolution of 800*600 in mind.

But i must say that the site is simple yet the information is pretty straight forward regarding the services offered.

I would agree. ALOT of people are set at 800 x 600. Have to be ready for those folks.

Overall through the site is very well done. Clean, simple and the point. Very good effort.
