That looks a lovely site, how are you finding Joomla to use? I've been trying dot net nuke and been finding it a bit of a nightmare.

Great design! A few things:

* The flash nav, why are the numbers each clickable themselves, as well as the left/right/start/stop?
* Contact form seems appropriate in the contact section
* Does Joomla offer clean-urls?

Very nice work indeed! Joomla offers semi-clean URL's by enabling the option "search-engine friendly URL's" in the global configuration. It requires an extension to create semantic URL names though. Once you start working with Joomla some more, you're bound to run into its limits though - content organization is very limited (always in sections, categories & items), and there's a lot of ugly HTML code hardcoded in the core which requires quite some hacking and cleaning up.

Joomla seems to work great for us. We used to develop in ms sql and asp. It just took to long to develop sites. Joomla has allowed us to cut our development time and concentrate more on design and functionality.

Great designed web. Poor me, i tryna use Joomla CMS long before, but its too hard for me to redesign it. I downloaded custom template and reedit the css and others but it seems not satisfy me much. :).
