Website landing page. Simplicity vs Comprehensive?
I was wondering, should a website landing page be simple or comprehensive? I'm sure there are benefits for both, I personally like comprehensive... But i noticed my page now resembles Google reader, in that the frame of the site loads and then starts loading all the pictures etc.... 

My question is, is it appropriate to have a landing page like this? All the essentials to the site still load first... or is this a bad practice?
