Yes, I'll second that opinion of Kerik's... FWIW, I have a door on my
splash page with the words "knock" underneath

Kate,

No, not at all. Nothing wrong with a splash page, IMO. I've never been

fooled into thinking that there was nothing beyond the splash. In
fact,
it's pretty obvious to most web surfers, I would think. Especially a
site
like yours that says "Enter Site" or Clay's that has an image of an
opening door... Pretty big visual hint, don't you think?? Also, the
mouse
pointer turning into a pointing finger is another clue most people
pick up
on pretty quickly.

My only comment on your splash page would be to center the title text
over
the image.

Now, flashing lights and annoying music are guaranteed to cause me to
click away from a site.
