I have cleaned up a few things. The join links are now animated, and should draw more attention. I also made the members area link more clear. In doing so, I also made some of the text clearer.
Also, I got rid of the resize, and made the tour pages so they fit better on 800 x 600 displays. They also look cleaner on larger screens, now. I hope that bit is less annoying now.
The entry page is cleaned up some. I still have some outgoing banners, but they are less prominent, and the overall layout is cleaner. The only link likely to draw people elsewhere is to our other site. (I also added a somewhat over-obvious second chance to ENTER HERE.)
Other stuff...
RogerV:
Our join links all say "Join Now". As for the sell... I want the quality of our content to sell, not just the price. My goal is to present the content in a way that doesn't detract from it. So a clean design is important to me.
Tree: I have been goth for more than a third of my life, and I am happy with the white background. ;) Seriously, though, I use the white to make it clear we're not so goth that normal people won't like it. I have enough black sites.
BV: I like to idea of a customized CCBill signup page for this site. I haven't gotten to it yet, but I will. Thanks.
Thanks to everyone, in fact. Constructive criticism is a great thing, and I appreciate your time and honesty. I hope it is coming together better, thanks to your help.
