Opera 9 on OpenSuSe 10.3. 11 seconds with Konqueror Absolutely brilliant, very well done. I'm not however, so keen on the "Message of the Day" Positioning. I like Randy's framing, but I'd like to see it more in line with the Action Statements, rather than off to the side The mouseover effect is good, I like it and given my preference for bald simplicity, that's saying something. :) I asked the question on the wiki: Andre was asking for some help with the Why.openoffice.org page http://marketing.openoffice.org/tryouts/Why.OpenOffice.org/en/index.html Any help would be appreciated. It would be good to get the why page updated before this one goes live. -- Graham Lauder, INGOTs Assessor Trainer Moderator New Zealand (International Grades in Office Technologies) www.theingots.org Phone DDI +64 7 886 8171 Mobile +64 27 494 4315 OpenOffice.org MarCon (Marketing Contact) NZ http://marketing.openoffice.org/contacts.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
