This is now implemented also.
I'm thinking maybe we could offer a couple of levels of graphics.
Text Only -- could block CSS also with this option and have minimal
difference in the text.
Low Graphics Usage -- just the sponsors logo and W3C icons
High Graphics Usage -- traditional website
The menu options could be reworded depending upon the mode so we could get
"More Graphics" or "Less Graphics" for example to control the levels of
graphics on the site.
Control this with a cookie and we can all be happy.
The default should be Low Graphics Usage though IMO so that the people who
always block cookies, or have trouble reading the web site with the
graphical background can still survive with nice readable text. That is,
a user friendly site. After all, www.lyx.org is the user site and almost
every user who has responded with the exception of Kathyrn (I think there
was only one, hmmm no, must have been two if Lars made three) preferred
the no background image design.
