    Re: Website Upgrade

    I'm just throwing in another vote for light text on a dark background. Any website that gives me a style sheet option, such as most forums, I always go with "light on dark" over "dark on light" because I find it much easier on the eyes.

    For what it's worth, I agree too.

    Matt,

    I like the look of the site overall. It is fairly intuitive and easy to navigate.

    I browsed through all of the responses and didn't see it mentioned so hopefully this isn't a repeat.

    The one thing I found is it little formatting issue. If you go under Kilt Info -> Care & Maintenance, the text "Click here for cleaning tips", shows through the drop-down boxes on the tool bar, making it hard to read some of your selections.

    I think a darker background looks classier to me somehow, though I"m not sure exactly why.

    One other point...I noticed that I wasn't able to find much info on the tweeds available. I'm not sure if I just didn't find the proper link or if ther is no link. You make it very simple to locate available tartans and I think available tweed options should be as easily accessed as well.
