-Design
Quality, but lifeless and undefined. I think that a simple graphic on the top, and some links and text is not enough. You need to add life to your layout and define that what the site is about. If its about design, then make that more understandable by first view. Also, the red text is a no, the graphic text being red is okay, but the HTML text being red is not to hot. I'd suggest white.
-Graphics
Nice, but not enough graphics or enough detail.
-Navigation
Nothing wrong with it.
-Layout
You need some seperating barriers between the different section in the layout and you need to add more life to it, and meaning.
-Useability
Perfect. Not confusing, to the point and workable.
Hope that helps, and keep at it. About the rambling, I love it, it gives me more info about you than I expect, and I like to know the people on BioRUST. Don't worry about it, be you, be who you are and people who like you will be there, people who don't wont.
Also, we aren't fond of curse words here, its not a big deal since you didn't know, but just try to keep it to a minimum. No punishment and I don't think anyone else will do a thing, but like I said, we try to keep it clean, and give the website a dignified first look.
Best regards,
