Greetings mages!

Thanks for all the suggestions and comments. Not being a professional web designer (yet?), I appreciate all the feedback. Pardon me if I answer all replies in one mail.

1. Background color of main content area: I've changed it to black over #E0E0E0. ruskie and flux_control seem to be amenable to it. (On another color-related note, flux mentioned that the text color for the search buttons are unreadable, so I'll have to fix that as well).

2. Font sizes: I used em's, not pt's, but not %'s either. I thought em's was more preferred (by the w3c)? I could change that as well if that's not the case. (Going to wait for replies on this one).

3. Visited links color: of course I intended to do that, but forgot to somewhere along the road. :P

4. Underlined links: Normally, I agree with this (although my own website doesn't look that way), but wikis, specially MoinMoin, seem to be an exception. My reason is that links in MoinMoin are tricky. Developer_Organization is different from Developer Organization. But with underlined links, they look the same, which may lead to some confusion if links are typed in manually. I temporarily changed the setting in my demo site to illustrate the point. Also, it seems that MoinMoin defaults to no underline for links, perhaps for the same reason.

5. Stationary header and sidebar: I'm not so sure on this one. Smells too much like frames/frameset of ages past :) though of course it can be done in standards-compliant ways. I'm just not so sure about it.

I think that covers most of the replies. :)

Regards,

Juan Carlos G. Torres
