17 I second that. Scrap the (oversized) purple bar und make it plain text.
18 Get the user navigation up front and not cluttered all over the page.

20 Personally i'd like the navigation to go to the left, but if that's too
21 complicated i certainly won't suggest putting it at the bottom. I'd
22 never look for navigation items below content.

24 Just my 0,02 cent.

28 Good evening, gentlemen. I am a HAL 9000 computer. I became operational
29 at the HAL plant in Urbana, Illinois, on January 11th, nineteen hundred
30 ninety-five. My supervisor was Mr. Langley, and he taught me to sing a
31 song. If you would like, I could sing it for you.
