The site should be HSI (High Speed Internet) friendly and LSI
(Low Speed Internet) friendly. This also means only one site, not two, i.e.
one for Flash and one for others. This makes some people feel left out and
can cause loss of site traffic.

Echoing the above, to me the current design of Lugnet is very LSI friendly and
logically laid out. In my opinion this makes Lugnet one of the great sites
(similar to Yahoo and Google) and Im by no means unique in my opinion. Lugnets
greatest strength is that without waiting or taxing bandwidth I can enter and
quickly find what I want. On this basis I would actively discourage messing with
the basic formula.
Predominantly, I use Lugnet to view (an occasionally take part in) discussion
groups, read lego news, research sets etc. and a basically text based interface
is ideal for this.
If I want to view a pretty, graphically heavy and therefore slow interface I can
always visit www.lego.com
Therefore, liberal use of javascript is good as are some icons but placing
masses of pretty graphics and flash movies everywhere will just slow down the
experience without actually adding any real benefit beyond asthetics.
By all means freshen up Lugnet but please dont go overboard or mess with
basic formula - Lugnet works! (your success todate is living proof of this).
