| | | (...) I don't think you're alone -- I went through a bit of the same thing with the CLSotW icon. I don't have a problem with graphic links, it's more a consistency issue. Most everything else on the page is a text link, so I didn't think to click (...) (25 years ago, 30-Aug-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

| | | | (...) Great!--glad you like it. BTW, here is a larger version of it, from an unfinished layout experiment last December (1998)... (URL) you think it's too big? On that page, it's 197x197 pixels and 15530 bytes. For comparison, the current CLSotW (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

| | | | | (...) It's not too big for that page. (...) Even if you don't use the black bars, the layout changes would make the CLSotW page more useful. More useful for me, anyway--I'm an infrequent visitor, so I always want to check previous winners. Steve (25 years ago, 20-Sep-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

Another downside I just realized is that there's no longer any room for banner ads at the top -- not only do they look distracting below the other horizontal bars, but they also end up looking like a graphic title for the CLSotW site, which is (...)
