Hi,

logo is a poor substitute for a well-written, informative site. It's all 
about the content.

However, you would be surprised just how poor most web designers are at 
keeping the overall size of their pages down.
I was just having a bit of fun :-) Most people have more than enough cpu power today.  My 850Mhz laptop is uploading Manila using JOSM, downloading from the internet, and I'm using it to read emails with firefox. Yet gkrellm is just ticking along between 20%-40% and it's only running at 696Mhz. 

I have looked at the source for web pages in the past. I think the problem with size is down to the gui web design software people use, instead of getting dirty with html code like real men. :-)

Personaly I hate the entire look of the front page, but as I can't do better, for me it's fine the way it is.



Cheers, Ian
