Agreed completely. Because the site works WITH HTML rather than AGAINST it, it renders very quickly - small data size and easy on the browser. It is a very functional reference site and "prettying it up" would probably greatly detract from its utility. I hope the new site design continues to be as easy on the eye, and as quick to use. Last time I wrote to a web site saying how clean and easy their web site was to use, they added a bucket-load of graphics shortly afterwards. Made it take twice as long to load, and added nothing to usability. A new logo might be in order though. Steve -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
