How much time do you have to work on this?  If you can spend a fair 
amount of time I'd suggest restructuring the page to be html strict and 
not use tables for page layout.  If it is due in the next 12 hours, 
that would probably be a bad idea :-).

HtML is designed to provide structure to information, and so, the tags 
have meaning.  Nothing on the home or about us pages is tabular data, 
so no tables are needed.  If you can, I'd recommend taking each part of 
your page and thinking about what kind of data it is.  Is it a 
paragraph?  Is it a list of links?  Is it a logo?  Then choose the html 
elements that match that type of data.  As you do this, you will find 
that the page groups itself into sections.  Add a division for each 
section and give it an id that names the section.

Once that is done you can start thinking about how you want it to look, 
which moves you into the css world ( I knew I'd get back on topic 
eventually :-) ).  You can use css to influence how the content is 
positioned on the page as well as fonts/colors/borders.

I'm a programmer, not a designer ( that's probably obvious :-) ) but I 
love the fonts you have chosen.  My only suggestion is to lighten the 
main background image a bit more.  It is making the text somewhat hard 
to read.

I have to run out now, but will be back later if you want more concrete 
examples.
