I think this is excellent, and we should use it. I have a few minor suggestions though: * The download link should have the words 'Download ArgoUML' on the button or very close to it, rather than just '0.26 (Windows)'.
* Something odd happens with the background in FF3 when I click the download link; it shows shows a large dotted box extending much lower than the button. Can this be tweaked? * The google widget overspilled its container at my zoom level. Can the width be specified to a ratio or number of pixels that keeps it within it's container? Regularly tweaking and changing the home page is a good thing, as it helps people realise that the project is active!
