The square ad block at the top on left, looks too odd. And it causes a lot of empty space at the right. Aint better to use a verticle ad at the right and drag the top text on left. it would look more natural.
wow i just went on way back machine and browsed for sites back in the early 90s. your icons/images are badly optimized. Your Logo looks like its part of your banner ad. I didn't even know it was your logo till i doubled checked on the URL. I think you need more line spacing for your content.
It's not terrible. A centered professionally designed logo would go a long way. I would also think about another way to organize the links off to the left. It just hurt my eyes to look at it.
