catches my eye since it's the only moving element and it's right at the top of the page - a prime area for the user to focus on.
All that is quite apart from the fact that people expect there to be a site logo in the top left corner and for it to be clickable - to bring them back to the homepage. You're hiding that useful, instinctual, piece of navigation from the user. Oh and maybe I'm blind but I can't find anywhere to show the logo again, permanently.
You state that the results come from Google and Yahoo, it would be nice to know which results came from where (or both engines).
