I don't have anything against the web site, I like it, but I kinda agree that these banners are too big and a bit negative/unprofessional.
Take this for example: http://www.freeswitch.org/ads/ad8.jpg When someone looks at that the first thing they get is a negative feeling and that's not good, doesn't matter what the message is, the negative feeling is there. So yeah, I kinda agree with you.
