Critique this please

hiya,

this is my latest project: a site for a church.
basically its a kind of christian church that seperated from the roman-catholics in 451, with a community in austria.

currently i’m trying to get a layout done for the main page.

anyways, what you’ll see after clicking the link below is all i could come up with so far and honestly, i’m not too confident with it… :-/

the customer asked me to add links to his old page, plz just ignore them, as well as the german text…

so, if you can drop a few lines about what you think of the layout/look of the first page, i’d appreciate it, and please… be honest :slight_smile:
thanks in advance,

oh, and please mind that i’m no pro at all, just doing this to finance my studies…
