I didn't fix the rollover images on the menu, which will decrease the 
over
all page size little bit more. I'm not sure how much at this point, 
but there
are many images for that menu so it does affect to some degree... I 
think...

My Dreamweaver writes all the Javascript, but I don't know much about
how popup blocker works (what kind of popup it's blocking), so I don't
know about that part.

I assume every browser has different setting for popup, too. IE that 
I'm
using gives me the message that it blocked popup. If I want to see the
popup contents then I click the message to let the popup open.

You can open the sub window automaticaly and by clicking the link.
I'm thinking put the link with the worning "This will open the popup
window" or something to let people know what is supposed to be
happening.

Here is the Java script for popup window.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ code start here ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<head>

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">

</script>

</head>

<!-- This is actual popup link -->
<a href="#" 
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('subwindow.html','subwin','toolbar=yes,location=yes,status=yes,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=450,height=400')">window 
open
</a>
<!-- link ends here -->

If you give me the finished template and let me know where it is 
supposed
be on the server, then I will be able to work on the images.
