Thanks for the nice work so far. Its much appreciated
I already said this in the chat. I think the flickr stream should be replaced a little bit.
The colors and contrast of the flickr stream is are brighter and have more contrast than the
webpage.
Eyes will recognize the stream first. I think the main purpose of the front page is to have
links to the downloads, recent news and documentation. The flickr stream is a funny bonus I
think it distracts a little bit. Would it be possible to show 1-2 pictures from the stream in the
right
side bar or at the bottom of the page? People can then focus more easily on what they
probably searched on the webpage (the downloads, etc).
I don't want to start a complete discussion about the flickr stream at all. I just noticed
that it distracts me.
Thank you
David
