looks ok, but you have a problem with the code.

each one of your pages looks basically like this to google:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Je ne sais...</title>
</head>

<body>
<div align="center"><img src="images/index.jpg" width="750" height="650" border="0" usemap="#Map" />
<map name="Map" id="Map">
<area shape="poly" coords="620,541,620,541" href="#" />
<area shape="poly" coords="580,507,588,543,728,503,712,473" href="main.html" />
</map>
</div>
</body>
</html>

google is blind, it can't read images, only text + code, and your text & code say nothing. thus your content can't be properly indexed by search engines.

i'd suggest using html + css to build, image maps are very 1997 and have a host of problems.

examples of using css can be found at csszengarden. 1 content --> multiple designs.

alternatively you could add some dummy code and/or hidden text to feed the crawlers some info. add the property display:hidden to these elements to get them out of the picture but they are there for computers.

CONTENT IS KING.

google your URL and see what happens. (genesis?)

k. hope that helps.
