Looks like a good start to me eeb. It is clean and simple and the logo is very nice.
I don't like the tables layout though. I saw in the source that you are using ImageReady. Watch out for unnecessary HTML with that program. Especially in table layouts. Also you don't have the DOCTYPE declaration in your HTML. I recommend adding this. Here is some helpful info.

Don't use their example. Your usage of tables for layout makes your page invalid for XHTML 1.0 Strict.
The site validates with the least amount of errors for HTML 4.01 Transitional.
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dojostudios.net%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=HTML+4.01+Transitional&group=0
Then most of the remaining errors are pretty much from ImageReady.
 
I love all the whitespace and how clean/simple it is. Logo is nice too.

The big image with the guy reading a newspaper just doesn't seem to fit the theme at all.

Wanna know the best place to get free & royalty free images to use for stuff like that?

That's what I use. All, very high quality digital photos with a lot to choose from, just make sure to sign up an account.

Also, there's no DOCTYPE declared in your HTML. I don't know if you wrote the code yourself or are using an HTML editor program. But using the Transitional doctype might be the best for your site and fix the errors:

I use XHTML 1.0 Strict but I'm a perfectionist. The Transitional one may be better for you.

Paste this at the top of the HTML code before everything else:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

Edit: Damn, Somnium beat me to it.
 
LOL! Ha that's funny we were both writing our replies at about the same time. :D Funny you picked up on the same crap I did! :)
