I think the menu fonts are a little "cluttered" and a lighter font would be more readable. (No, I don't wear any glasses and I can see very well :cheesy: ) Anyway, good job.
you would be surprised how many emails we have gotten over the years from people who couldn't find where to sign up. We didn't want to have a HUGE button, so i think the compromise with a couple of prominent links should do the trick.
The only thing that is a bit troublesome is that the login, although slick eye candy, does not allow for password keepers like roboform to auto log people in. But other than that, a nice update.
