Well, you cannot expect to create high-quality code, if you don't know how
to do it. Tools like Dreamweaver don't do a good job here, if used as
WYSIWYG editors. And good, slim HTML code does effect your sites ranking to
a certain degree. Either learn how to write HTML or pay someone to build
your site.

I totally agree to the comments regarding the splash screen.

It looks as if your page should have a white background, but you did not
correctly set it. My browser defaults to a light grey.

Do not use images for the headlines and links. Use plain text and be sure to
wrap headlines in <h1>..</h1> (or h2 ... h6). If you insist on images
(though I can't imagine good reasons), set the ALT attribute to a
meaningful text.
