There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is a society, where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar,
I love not man less, but Nature more
--Lord Byron
Do you mean the buttons of the top navigation bar? I've added a line below the navigation bar to break up the page more. Check the Third Try - Frontpage image, to get an idea of how it looks.
Oh, and please vote so I can see how much this sucks ;)
A nice job like the layout that is more horizontal. Though - by having no side navigation, one has to scroll up or downto the top /bottm to hit a link. however - a layout where the navigation is always at hand would be good. otherwise - can't fault your design - very good.
great work crusader!
