much much better!.

a few minor sugestions: eliminate the baby blue bar across the top of the page with the welcome note and put the welcome note in a white box at the center of the page much like the “announcment boxes”. this would bring all content up a little.

i would also make the darker blue at the top of the page as tall as the lugnet logo, offset it with the search tool on the top right hand corner and center the other “cartoon” clickable links between them.

speaking of the cartoon links, i really don’t mind them too much but, i would suggest changing the events and spotlight one to something that convays there meaning better. the spotlight one i see as a desk lamp much like the one in PIXAR’s logo. as for events i don’t have any good ideas. if they don’t change i’ll deal with it and it really won’t bother me a ton but it would be cool.

other than that it looks 1000 times better than the confusing first version. thank you for actualy taking suggestions and thanks for the info on loading content. it was interesting to see. ondrew
