Change to the Site Home page. I think the graphics have been a bit overdone.

Much easier to read with the change of font but the addition of the graphics has pushed
the page size down so the "News" and other items are now not visible and could be missed.

Minor bug in the refresh. In the News section, the second column width has been set narrower than the enclosed text so some of the words are truncated.

Speaking personally, I prefer the typeface in the News section to the typeface in the new Welcome; however, the new section is a worthwhile addition. To pick up on Caedave's point, would it be possible to put the Welcome section across the full width, with the Main Menu, News and Who's Online then set up as now but all below the Welcome? This would probably allow the main header for the News section to appear about two-thirds of the way down the page so any urgent messages should draw the attention.

"enginee works" - is that the truncated text? I'll try to find/make a suitable, smaller screenshot. The font is exactly the same, just bold.

I think I can move the "who's online" bit... somehow.

I've clipped the attached out of a screenshot on my laptop which is running at 1280x800 resolution.

Edit - displays as per the attachment in Firefox, IE8, Google Chrome and Safari. In Opera, the text is re-justified to fit within the column width and displays with all text visible.
