External link icon: I'd lose the globe, also because it's jaggy. You
may find this useful:

Link colour: The site is very blue. Maybe choose one or two
complementary or contrasting colours, for decoration, and use a
derivative for your link colours:

Henrik,
Thank you for your feed back. I am working on those now. =)
The little globe is used to indicate links to external sites.
Perhaps another icon would indicate this better?
What would you suggest for the link colors. I prefer colors that
make the links stand our and not blend into the rest of the site...
The colors that you see current are a part of the default style
sheet that I use and year should probably be changed.
Thank you,
Jim

Hi Jim,
A couple of cents from downunder (in FF3, Camino, Safari / Mac).
1) The main horizontal menu bar breaks thru the blue border on the
right
2) Maybe the drop menu would look better with a matching background
image on the main category, rather than a solid blue block
3) I'd have contact us link / details prominent
4) Suggest font size is decreased and leading increased
5) Increase padding around footer content
6) Link text colour is a bit 'electric' blue (and the green, on
hover, doesn't seem to associate with any other colour on the site)
7) What's that little globe about?
8) Purely personal view: everything looks a bit 'tabloid' busy and
cluttered, which to me is kind of juxtaposed with the yoga vibe. 1)
above should help to open up the layout but perhaps less use of bold
(potentially even a font change to something less cold) will deliver
a purer, classier, more whitespace, overall feel?
Like I said, my 2c.
Henrik
