I like what you have done. The increased speed of load
is really evident with my dial-up modem.

I'd leave the menu list where it is in the header.

Thanks,
Pete

Hi Pete,

Thanks so much for the feedback, that is GREAT news!

The menu list in the header was Andrea's idea so I can't take 100% credit for that (other than the look and feel of it). :D

Is everyone liking the new changes to the forums and the blazingly fast speeds? Are you happy I could get rid of the top banner and make the header simpler? :D

Comments always welcomed.

The site loads fast, the pages are clean, I love the "NEW" look. The work you put into this site truly amazes me... You should be proud of your little baby that's lookin' all grown up.

Thanks a million! Yes, Total Motorcycle really has grown up a lot in the past dozen years. If I went back in time and told myself when I started TMW how big it would be today I doubt I'd believe it. Just think since you first started coming to the site Doug in how much has been added and all the ads that I have been able to get rid of thanks to your support and the support of many others here. (BTW: Visitors do count as support).

You really made me smile this Sunday afternoon... which BTW I am working on Total Motorcycle's main pages now to do the same style of "clean look"; wait till you see it! I am just trying to decide if I can afford to lose the top leaderboard or not (it's a good chuck of my income!) but it looks really nice without it there....argh.

Here is a sneak peek of what I am working on (note, it's LIVE and I'm updating it LIVE): http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/erase.htm
