As a regular visitor, I don't want to see a front page every time I bring up the site. I just want to see a link that will take me to what I'm looking for. - Even though the "Enter the SignWriting Site" graphic is very large, the layout still makes it seem on the same level as the links to the other sites in the SignWriting Webring. I found myself visiting the other sites rather than yours. Which is not a bad thing, but maybe not what you intended! It's a big challenge to put everything that people might need on one page and not have it seem cluttered, or have people scrolling forever. I hope this feedback helps. -- -Angus B.
