You need to get those submenus into some <noscript> tags.
Kinda cute, really. Considered renaming it
the Laughin Gass?

With JavaScript off, the site is almost useless. There goes ~15% of
your audience.

With js on, I didn't appreciate those large images jumping at me.
You're wasting a lot of valuable space there, with pictures of bugs
and women which have nothing to do with your content.

It looks rather strange all shoved up in the upper left corner of my
1024x768 browser window.

The general design is ok, except for the no-resize.

1. Look at in 1024x768 ...wouldn't it look better centered on page?
2. Why can we not have links to your 7 client sites?
3. Drop-down nav always looked bad IMO, now it just looks old-fashioned and
bad.
4. You say "a unique perspective on design revealed by imagination,
creativity, research, and usefulness, Jolly Donkey sets its sights on
bringing an identifiable and coherent online presence for its clients"
....geez, what a mouthful!!

A few comments:

MSIE6 -- 800x600 -- 17" screen -- text='normal'
=======================================

(1) Attractive-looking pages, but the text size can't be varied.

(2) 'Jolly Donkey' would look better with more prominence on the page,
rather than 'hidden away' top right.

(3) The client list would be better a series of links, so that people
can go and review your work.

HPR/MSIE6 (voice browser)
=========

(1) Put more complete ALT entries for the 'Download' and 'Special Offer'
images so that they can be understood as links when heard in isolation

(2) I can hear 'T 416 point 712 point 3915' (the <IMG> ALT text on the
cell-phone icon) ..... it would be better if 'T' was replaced by
'Telephone' or 'Phone' so that it was obvious to the listener

(3) The menu won't work for items with a 'drop-down' ('About' and
'Solutions')

(4) Some headings in the mark-up would be nice (aid to navigation)

(5) The <title> should reflect the page e.g. 'FAQs', 'Contact Us', etc.
as confirmation that the listener has accessed the correct page.

regards.
