Looks nice but there are a few problems. The main thing is that your pages are too heave. For example, http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/wso.php is about 750K bytes. Nobody on a slower connection is going to wait around for that page to load. You need to optimize your images - most of your thumbnails are ~50K when they should be 10-15 at most.
Also, I see you use Layout tables. This is going to hurt you in the long run. When you have a change, I suggest rebuiding your pages with tables and avoid using DW Layout mode as it creates some rather nasty code.
