hi Anita, I was going to see if I could help you with your logo graphic.
I am on a very fast cable connection, and I watched the logo load which means it is very slow on 56k
I downloaded it and tried to open it in PSP but it is not a good jpg file so I can't open it.
It is 240kb is size, since it only has a couple of colors, you could probably reduce that down considerably by reducing the number of colors in the image.
I just noticed how many graphics you have on the front page. You could optimize them all and probably speed up your site a lot.
check out this link to info about it:
