I do miss the Shout Box. I know that what we posted was mainly banal but it seemed to give a kind of human dimension to the site.
As for the NEW LOOK - I love it! It's clean, fresh and very professional looking. Thanks to Will for all his hard work - it's very much appreciated. 
I understand what Hardy was getting at concerning the gallery but once we get used to it and the bugs are ironed out I think all will be well.
Big hugs for
