Home Page Revamp

Check out this new layout http://www.swordfishingcentral.com/sword.php

It is less content and easier to follow I think than the current home page at www.swordfishingcentral.com

Let me know what you think before I go live with it.

Thanks,
Mike

Still think you should get off Times New Roman.

Looks like you need some padding on the main content cells. Right now the text comes all the way to the edges.

Good Point Sara. I added some padding.. http://www.swordfishingcentral.com/

Maybe I should have a phpbb module pulling the top 5 topics?? I'm trying to build an online magazine/resource for big game fishing... Kind of difficult with my domain name, but I am truckin with it..

Thanks

Have you considered making the text smaller?

Much better with the smaller text!

I guess my last suggestion would be to move the entire page up higher so there isn't such a big gap between the header and the top of the browser window.
