The content is still taking shape, but glad you both noticed. True mark of a professional.

The layout is effective enough. Pretty good use of stock photography. Your information architecture is also very effective - logical organization and hierarchy, well-labeled resources and easy to understand.
However, there are a few design issues I see:
You are using red and bright reddish orange for some text and links, but the giant block of orange that sits right in the users' faces is a muted orange. This is pretty incoherent as far as color usage goes.
The grid system is a little broken in your main content area on the home page. The margin between the vertical rule and the stock photography is different on the top photo and the bottom one - this is visually confusing, because the brain is seeing lots of hints that the design is a grid, but it breaks down in the details. They should line up.
The orange "They are made" in the field of blue is kind of hard to read.
The drop shadow around the border of your content wrapper is too dark and heavy - very visually distracting. It pulls the eye outward instead of focusing on the content inside.
The Slashdot menu ripoff you use in the sub-pages is completely inconsistent with the design of the rest of the site, both functionally and color-wise. You should apply the same (or similar) navigation on the home page, or alter the sub-page navigation. It's also extremely slow and buggy - it looks like you didn't implement the JavaScript quite as effectively.
Half a page of padding at the bottom of the content port is too much. It looks like there should be something else there, but it failed to load.
I recommend reading the following two books, I think they speak directly to the areas of design you are lacking:
Designing Web Usability by Jakob Nielsen

it is way too lengthy. i did not even end interpreting the first paragraph. each and everything suitable on your skills and adventure must be on your resume. Employers have not were given time to study an similar aspect again. Nor do they want to be suggested how mind-blowing you imagine you're. All a cover letter needs to assert is which interest you're using for thus the guy commencing the submit knows who to ahead the software to.

It looks like a pretty neat website to me, enough info pages to convince a visitor to register or contact for more info.

Spartan in terms of content, well-done otherwise.
