no, not gaudy at all! the 'powered by..' has always been a great idea... the pride involved in using apache! :)
try left justifying everything. <CENTER> is so mid- 90's... also, include a simple stylesheet that will force a particular font and 'feel' for the pages... i know, in *all* your spare time! :) am i alone in thinking that in general the open-source community has design-phobia?? and i'm not refering to your page. when a user sees that 'congratulations' page, it's more about the task at hand than the design of the page... i'm not saying that the apache look is bad or even gaudy. it's just funny to see so many open source websites that are functional versus eye-catching. the truth is that we geeks are the only ones who see the pages, not the general public... (or ms office 2000 users! he he...:) for example: www.sendmail.org is kinda boring, but very functional www.phpbuilder.com is very nice www.justlinux.com is pretty nice www.sgvlug.org is kinda boring i guess we open-source-o-philes prefer functionality over design 'froo froo.' your page looks fine! ...for what it's worth! andrew ps> see my company site http://www.oicweb.com . we do work primarily for SUN microsystems, including http://www.sun.com and http://soldc.sun.com, for which i am project manager. --- "William A.
