I think there is obviously far too much white space, also the same on the
Downloads page.
Does this mean "not enough content on the page", or "the margins,
padding, etc. are too tall/wide"? If it's the latter, at what
resolution are you viewing the site (1024x768, 1280x1024, etc.)?
My screen is an old 17" crt set to 1024x768. I think there is not enough
content on the page.
Please don't say "not enough content on the page" when we're
asking you what that means!
hmm, I just answered Patricks question with his own statement.in the
quotes in his own quoted remarks. Content of course refers to text and
images that make up the visual representation of the web page, what the
visitor see's on his/her own screen..
The Manuals, Advertising and Home pages are all
well-balanced in content-to-space. Maybe something like the Manuals page -
multiple colored boxes -
Hmm... are you trying to say that you prefer two-column pages to
one-column pages? I agree that the two-column pages work quite
well, so perhaps we should make all (or almost all) pages use
this.
Was that what you meant?
Yeah, I really like the look of the Manuals page. I think that should
be carried out to the other pages as well. But then I like that have a
single 'look' or layout theme, carried out through all of their pages,
makes reading the site much easier. Leaves the visitor with one visual,
coherent memory of the site if all the pages are designed with the same
theme. Personally, I think sites that have a different look to each
page as messy, careless in their design work, not well thought out. But
of course that's just my opinion.

This makes no sense to me. Please remember that 80-character
terminals are the polite assumption to make when sending emails.
heheh, sorry. Obviously my attempt at showing 3 boxes was a big
mistake. Oh well, you get the idea anyway.
