This is my first, of many, sites developed with my new favorite CMS  ;D
I'd love some feedback regarding usability, style, etc. I'm working on converting my Authorize.Net code over to CMSms module. Let me know if you're interested. Thanks!

Nice, I like the left menu

when resizing font in FF breadcrumbs loose their nice dark background, maybe you should continue the image or change bg to dark color for that div

and the make payment page form fields first looked like they werent fully loaded.. but thats a matter of taste ;)

overall I like it!

Nice job  ;)
I agree with  trw concerning the payment page.
Your could custom the news bloc on the right of the homepage. It seems not really homogenic in my opinion.
The city on the top is a good idea. Bravo ! (excuse my frenglish  ;D)

Very Nice job...

How did you get the https secure page to work I've seen some posts here inquiring how to do it?...

Hey, thanks for the feedback!

I'll play with the breadcrumbs bar to see if I can get it looking better in larger font sizes and when the text loses contrast on the background. I'll probably make the image scale or apply a gradient filter.

I agree about the news summary on the home page. I've just been disheartened by all the fiddling with CSS for IE6/7. Can anyone tell me why IE 6 shows some of the topbar background near the footer? It only seems to happen when you have to scroll down to that area, then it goes away when you hover over a link. Guillotine effect maybe?

I kinda like my funky form input borders. It feels more like an actual paper form where you write on the line... not in a box.

Mark:
At the moment, the payment page uses the embed tag to add an iframe with the secure form. Not quite as elegant as I'd like it to be but it works.
