could be much more so though, when you have all of 10 seconds to get
someones attention enough to stay on the site!

I don't think one can say it is poorly designed without it being an ego
thing, just that you don't like the design or do not personally find it
clear or effective. I can tell you that I am constantly considering
changes to the site, and will take the preceding comments on board, as I
always do. However, if you have actually designed a site with as much
content as my one has, you'll know that there are a lot of issues in the
design of the site, many of which pull you in opposite directions.
Moving away from the 'traditional' blue underlined links is not
something you do lightly. Many sites have moved away from this, to a
greater or lesser extent, such as:
http://www.theage.com.au/
and
http://www.nytimes.com/
Others have not. It is, in fact, all a juggling act, usually informed by
assessments of the types of users visiting a site and their level of
proficiency.

There is the rollover change of color when you hover the cursor, but I
will change that to include an underline so it is even clearer.

The specifics of Mark's page are flexible. I put the cruise ad in to
support Mark. Without it the links to the individual columns comes up
much higher. I think I'll move it below the column links.

Cheers,

Wayne
