Site critique

I would love to get some general feedback on my portfolio website as well as help on a specific page. http://www.akiree.com
I am a very amateur web designer/builder - as in I just build sites for my stuff and must use a design program. I built this site using a combo of dreamweaver 4 and 8 (updated in the middle) I am personally thrilled with it, it "looks" like I wanted it to. But I am sure that there is some coding stuff that could be fixed, changed etc. I am up for any constructive criticism although bear in mind there are many thing I just don't know how to do.
The advice I would like is on my resume page. http://akiree.com/pages/Resume.mht As saved from word, it is a mht file. This makes it not viewable or alterable in Dreamweaver and apparently not viewable in firefox or I think mozilla. I use IE and so can see it fine. What can I do about this? I want to have something alterable through Dreamweaver so that I can add a "PDF version" button. Which will then raise a whole other set of questions about making PDF's but I'll do that later.... Should I just type everthing into Dreamweaver and if so how do I keep the formatting?
Third question - I am considering adding a background to the whole shebang, a nice woodgrain something so that it looks like the book is on a table. Does there happen to be a place I could find something like that or will I have to work on making my own. (Semi proficient in photoshop)
Edit: The site is not truly finished - the "everything else" link goes to a section of the site that has not been uploaded.
Thank you for all your help
