Drink Recipe Website - Custom Coded - Validates - Please Review!

    I've recently developed a drink recipe website and it is coming along nicely. I've only been working on it for a few days and, although there is still work to be done, I am pretty proud of what I've done so far.

    You can check it out at:
    http://drinkem.com/

    drink'em offers over 9,000 drink recipes. As the thread title states, the layout does validate (athough there are some errors because of the AuctionAds). The design is custom and it took me a couple hours to get it to work right IE, FF, and Opera. I haven't tested it in any other browsers.

    The pages aren't exactly SEO perfect, but I'm still working on that. The links are search engine friendly:

    http://drinkem.com/Cocktails.category
    http://drinkem.com/Caramel+J+recipe.drink
    http://drinkem.com/Coffee+Mug.glass

    So, what do you guys/gals think? Any features I can add to it? Any changes you would make?

    Thanks! :)

    It may be nice to place random drink recipe on the start page.

    Thanks for the suggestion, that is what I did on Ethnic Recipe Info and I agree that visitors might like it.
    I'll update the thread when I've made this change :)
    Edit
    Done. How does it look? :)

    Pretty nice concept! I like the simplicity of the design. I think there needs to be some balance in the colors, maybe make the footer a solid green like your right table.

    Thanks. By the way, thanks to GE Wolf Rat for pointing out the "spans" problem. They've been fixed :)
