    Hi guys,

    I'd like advice on how to "better" the current design and use please.

    The site has quite a lot of content, but I'm finding it difficult to organize everything into something that looks athethetically pleasing and "simple" at the same time.

    What would you do in regards to www.pinkpt.com ?

    I would definitely suggest you going here and seeing these stats for yourself on how long your site takes to download. I'm on cable modem, and I noticed that it didn't download immediately.

    Just put in your URL (http://www.pinkpt.com) next to where it says "Enter URL to diagnose" and press "submit query"

    Ahhh yep I did that. Argh I know I need to sacrifice a few things, but I don't want to >_<

    The site takes about 40 seconds to download on a 56k, but I figured since a significant portion are now on higher speed net access, the page size shouldn't be too much of a problem.
