"download"! oh look at that! clear staring-me-in-the-face blue links to downloads! hey - as i said - it's not some beacon of perfection but seriously... it's quick and simple to find what i need to get started and gives me a reason to get started. but i'm not complaining of being ignored here. i know full well that the website could and should be better and i'll get around to that some time when i get the time and the time is right. i need to get back to some nice screenshots and what not. but you need to take a good hard look at your site and make it "digestible" to get people to have interest. have links to getting started/download/whatever simple and obvious near the top or right of the page as that is where people start. or have it smack bang in the center in a big fat button. center is where people start then they start scanning/reading along top, down the right side. that's usual behaviour in looking for something. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you?
