All comments relate to Firefox, because it's the only browser I use (through choice)
* The big patch of dotted grid lines isn't really needed, it takes up 80 pixels in height and serves no immediate purpose. Perhaps reduce down to just 1 layer (like you have under-neath the "Welcome on-board" message) to keep it consistent.
* Fonts change size all over the place. The welcome text looks like a 14px height, the rest of the body text is a very tiny 10px or maybe even less. This is just a simple CSS thing I am sure, so should be quick to fix.
* Copyright 2002
to me that always makes me think the site hasn't been updated since the year the copyright was set.
* Line things up in the left column more, for example when viewing a page there are different styles in the same block - the "More About" text is big and spaced out, the UL list below it with a totally different line-height to the Awards block immediately above it.
That's about it really, the design is nice and still holds up well today, it just needs a little spring-cleaning to make things more consistent.
