I have made some changes based on the feedback recieved on this list. The changes have not yet been committed to www.deb.at but a standalone homepage can be found here [1] 1. The size of the images have been significantly reduced cropped-swirls.png is now 2.9K rather than 22K. Keep in mind that this graphic is not supposed to be permanent. 2. The layout has been tweaked to avoid the list of links appearing to be the footer. The appearance on small screen has also been improved. 3. An initial handheld css has been added The cropped swirls are still there, the reasoning is explained in email above [2] The tweaks to the layout have in my view improved it. Thanks for the feedback! Moving the link list up and graphically grouping it with the splash and the intro text makes a lot of sense. Regarding the instant download button I have come to the conclusion that it would require a lot of changes to the whole array of download pages to introduce such a link. Otherwise the toplevel 'Getting Debian' link does the job perfectly well. The debian homepage definately does not need more links, perhaps better links and most probably fewer links. The 'Getting Debian' sequence should definately be analysed and improved, it was those pages that made me start work on a redesign in the first place. But any real improvements would probably require quite deep changes and would likely cause quite a few problems. Any comments on the tweaked homepage would be appreciated. Cheers!
