Mike,
I noticed that the wrong pictures are displayed when you move the mouse pointer over "Show me Impress" and "Show me Draw". The two screenshots interchanged.
BTW, are you planning to explain any features in more detail in that Flash demo or do you leave that to your official training packages?
Cheers, Erwin

Hi all,
I have updated the flash intro according to Simon's excellent suggestions below. The URL is http://www.digitaldistribution.com/community/Demo2
I've made the changes (all but the first) but may well have done them poorly. Please tell me if you think it can be better.
* Have you considered making a click on the big yellow note boxes dismiss them and slightly accelerate the delivery?
I was thinking about OOo 'button' instead, eg when the "back to menu" thingy comes up, there in also the various logos to go directly to the program represented by that logo. I haven't done anything about this yet, so if you don't know what I mean, I'll do it to show you.
* Might it be good for the Creative Commons URL to be clickable?
Done, although it's not obvious. Click on it and it will go there. It isn't blue and underlined (that would have been relatively non-trivial).
* Is there a place to promote the general benefit that OpenOffice.org uses an open, standard file format that protects you from vendor-inspired memory loss, so to speak? Maybe on your "Advantages" page?
Done. Can it be done better, anyone?
* In "Advantages" you say "OLE compliant". I'd suggest that's a Windows term that even Microsoft don't use any more. I can't instantly think of an alternative, maybe say "Compounds Documents" instead of "OLE compliant"?
OK, so I learned about computers in the dark ages ;-) I changed it.
* I think you should point out that it is cross-platform (Windows, Linux, Solaris, OS X) as well as being usable on most variants/versions of each of those platforms including older ones no longer supported by their supplier or its products (hint, hint ;-)
I made a direct link to the win95 (I got the hint) download. Is that too much?
* One thought for the "OpenOffice Support" page - I think you should advise people that they could buy a fully-supported distribution as well. While I'd of course be pleased to see it to point to StarOffice (sales of which should pay for the extensive engineering work Sun supplies) I think that just making the general point is important.
Very reasonable indeed. Done.
Hope these help,
Absolutely, yes.
Mike
