Wow. I set out *deliberately* looking for that link, and couldn't find it until I looked at your screenshot. I definitely wouldn't have found it if I didn't even know it was there. I'm no UI consultant, but that link definitely needs to be made more visible. Is the hover thing really *necessary*? For something this important, I'd say it's a bad idea to hide it behind a hover (I use keyboard navigation, and so wouldn't even have noticed it, though I concede that I'm a rare case :-P). But then I don't know the original reasoning behind making it hover. T -- Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped. -- Elbert Hubbard
