I don't mind the look of the current header, but quite a few pages have a </div> code error where the banner doesn't show correctly in IE.

1680x1050 - I take it that the 2000px-wide header image showed up with no visible edges, correct?

I figured I'd just revamp the whole thing while I'm at it - not just the header, but the design of the site, for I'm not that happy with the table grid look.

Ideally, I'd like to have a collection of bare frames with their headtubes and badges lined up, but I'm not sure if that will ever come to fruition.

We have been conditioned to look for tabs at the TOP not at the bottom. Tabs at the bottom does look cleaner, but I think it's a problem, especially for the first time visitors who may miss them entirely and not return.
Well, the Schwinn pages would have a Paramount headbadge, Campagnolo would have the one above, and so forth. All depends on what I can do with the rented Sony A55.

Good point about the navigation bar - I'll try one on top. What if I were to revise the bar with the yellow-gold gradient used in the "Headbadge" lettering, as opposed to the gray?

P.S.: I've been spreading propaganda on the older pages:



A good plug to grab some of the local market, or too cheesy?
