It's Mark, but he doesn't come here often. He does reply when we send him an e-mail. See the "View forum leaders" link, you will be able to contact him through the list.

Thanks for the suggestion. Duly noted and I will remove the white background in the content area.
(You were referring to the main part arent you? or are you talking about the background with the astro heads?)

Also, Jeffebert, Who is in control of site admin?[/QUOTE]Any white areas are irritating to my eyes, especially if I am trying to read. My monitor's brightness is set to 5%, but I still have trouble with white BGs. I had to set my Opera browser to User defined colors to avoid the irritation; I selected a light gray BG, which works fine, but only on certain pages.

Also, choose a scheme that has sufficient contrast between the BG & any text.

I agree about the background. My eyes have a tough time dealing with contrasts that bad. Other than that the page looks awesome. Maybe a different shade of blue? I don't know? But it does look awesome.

Wow the image on the first page looks awesome!! Although the link to the test set up doesn't work for me. The only issue I have is with the drop down menu as you said, it looks out of place to me, but I can't think of a better idea :(

Link is now currently up. It's actually linked to my PC directly so it can't be up 24/7. Will be up though for next 12+ hours.
