IMNERHO, the important aspect of a WWWeb page is the content. Appearance
is nice, but appearance on a presentation is like rhetoric in an argument: it can't stand on its own, but it can enhance the content (ie logic). Still, it's the content that matters. Honestly, there are gaps in the content on both. Okay, I realize it's a work in progress! The new look helps to disguise the fact that you're still filling in content, whereas the old one invites you to the empty folders. OTOH, once you get the content filled in some, the old one makes it much more accessible. Visitors to the new one might miss a lot & come away with the wrong (i.e. minimalist) impression. If you have some amazing prescience, you could make the new one "fly" by having the most popular stuff at the "front"... But a hierarchy viewed from the top masks its structure as well as its content. The "old" one spreads the content out so the visitor can better decide where they want to go. They both have appealing aspects, but as a "spread it all out so I can decide for myself" kinda guy, I'm going to have to vote for the "old" one too. (BTW, the "new" look has a folder named "_vti_cnf" at the top. That means you're using MS Front Page, right? With the deceptively alluring "Frontpage Extensions" enabled. Just a tip from yer old Uncle Jimbo: reliance on MSProducts will kill you someday. Just view the source & see for yourself what extraneous crap MS stuffs in there!) PS: are you planning to create all new content? Or are you adverse to a little e-plagiarism? You could fill up the instructional section quickly from other pages... A lot of people do that, which leads to a philosophical discussion best left for late night with beers. Glückliches Knotenbinden!
