Hi Kay,
Sorry for my late reply...

Hi Christian, and all...
I suggest removing the young seagull+egg image and replace it with
something more hypermedia like... (minimum: make the image link to
the end use products page... and some link below that to developer
oriented products (since the latter are missing now on our home page,
which is seriously undervaluing the work done for making OOo a true
developing platform).

I don't understand what you mean here really. Time for an illustration?
Aargh... yesterday night (for me at least ;) ) I gave high priority to
fixing IE... so since my schedule is booked completely, I still don't...
but here is some text art ;) (for fixed width fonts ;) )
___________________________________________________________________
___________ ______________________
native Free office suite

[1] should be something like the image they use in the image at
http://www.prooo-box.org/ ... screenshots of the different applications,
neatly presented... or a OOo 'box' mockup ... or something more original ;)
The <a href> should link to the product pages...
My comments btw on Christian: I do not like the suggestion made by
Christian (Cloph) so much, since it introduces yet another two buttons,
they are too huge, and give as much priority to developer products as to
end user products, which I don't think is a good idea (I'd say focus on
consumer first)... I think having a good position on the main page is
over estimated: What is important is that the path to the page is
logical (and this logic is well understood by the target audience, which
in the case of developers is more clearly defined than consumers of the
product).
Maybe just mentioning *what* the individual components are in the text
description would be enough to get folks actually clicking on "the
office suite" link where they would get more in depth information?
I would keep it graphical a bit... at least when it is attractive.

Maarten
