This is somewhat subjective, but IMHO, it would depend on which is more important to purpose of the page - the picture or the text. You could always do the image as a semi-transparent background and put the text over top. Just a thought. Marshall

Does the picture need to be that large? How about cropping or reducing the size
of the picture and re-doing the layout so the text can also be shown properly.

What shows above the fold is the most important part... that's where you get a user or see one leave. With LARGE pics be sure they are optimized for both size and speed... even with broadband slow to load might lose a viewer. No matter how fast computers become, they are never fast enough... particularly when we get used to the most recent speed increase! That said, if the PIC is the context/idea, then by all means make it most prominent. Since navigation is mentioned then there's more to offer, and I would make it easier to get to the rest of the stuff than create a landing page that might lose some eyeballs.

What I actually decided to do was use google website optimizer. the only problem with google optimizer is that it only alows you to use one page as the destination page . But maybe in the long run they will include more options.
