Hi Clayton, all, A few minor points that I think would help make the page look a little tidier:
* There is currently a dotted border separating the columns - given that each column section already has its own border, I don't think the extra dotted border is necessary. * I like the sound of teams, but it might help users distinguish the columns more quickly if they see the term projects as well. * Under "Teams", the underscores should be replaced by spaces in wiki page links * The third column is out of alignment with the other columns (shifted up). It might also improve consistency if the titles (Top 10 Pages, Last Edited Pages) in the third column had their own border and background color like the rest of the columns. * Overall, It's very text-heavy and the text is more condensed than in the older layout - perhaps having icons for the table headers - e.g. Participate and Teams would add color to the page. Larger font-sizes for the titles might also help space things out a little. The new desig a big improvement over the old one so my only suggestions are little bits of polish :) Regards, Ivan.
