First off, good show. Nice stuff. I like simple presentation.
A couple of suggestions. On my business website I used text boxes, but with a white background to
aid in reading. It also adds some nice contrast to the page. Might be worth playing with.
A few examples:

http://www.dsloan.com/Auctions/A12/78WebA12.htm
There are a couple of empty boxes (i.e. across from "Rides:"). I would recommend only making text
boxes when you have something to put in them.
As far as photos go, I try to keep file sizes around 100k, but with some of the important maps i
deal in, they have to be bigger or they look terrible.
Keep tweaking and adding to it. The web is a dynamic medium, too many people put up a page and never
tweak or add to it. ( I am sometimes guilty of that.) Keep it fresh and folks will come back. I have
webalizer on my personal page (
http://www.anthonysloan.com), which shows me where people are coming
from, and how they are finding me. It is amazing what google can do for you. And sort of scary.
Tuvalu I can understand, but Seychelles?
So far the most search engine hits have come from the Karate Monkey. That rocks.
Overall it looks quite nice, I look forward to seeing it evolve.
