There is no paid staff, and AFAIK, no "designers" who are also committers. And even if there was one, we can't depend on something like that. We can depend on there being programmers here, otherwise there would be no living products, and before long, no users or Website to worry about. > except that the website is not only for geeks.

Personally, I leave the eye-candy to others, and focus on functionality. Given the products we write here, I think that's going to very common. I'm not saying that I would be particularly interested in any design anyone else came up with. I'm just saying that if I need to change it, I'm going to change it, because there ain't nobody else here to do it. Personally, I'd say it's better that our sites don't look ~too~ good. That way people don't get the wrong impression. There is no commericial support here. Just a bunch of volunteers doing the best they can. Jakarta is an all-you-can-eat buffet, and should probably look like one :o) -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY US -- Developing Java Web Applications with Struts -- Tel: +1 585 737-3463 -- Web: http://husted.com/about/services -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
