I agree.  Feel free to contribute to Worg with relevant screenshots 
that we can select as "featured on the index page."  Also add title
and caption for these screenshots.

Can you make an alternate .css with non-fixed top bar and a better font?

I somehow agree that it was good to have everything in one page, but I
don't think that page was *that* readable.  In any case, you can always
pull the website (it's just a git repository) and you have everything
in "one directory".

If you have any patch that would make the website better to your eyes,
please send it!

Thanks,
