I'm still catching up with my reading and this thread caught my eye. For what its worth, I like the new front page better--Ms D does look much better, the setting is sumptuous (I, too, like the li'l old lady looking on in the background--naughty naughty!), and I'm glad Rob intendeds to keep that amazingly gorgeous drawing he did of Ms D! As for the index page, I like that, too, but if I man, the head & shoulders image of Ms D from the first could easily be cropped to fit the bill for one of the smaller photos--it is really one of the best photos I've seen composition-wise--her inviting, semi-mischievous, always beguiling smile, the look in her eyes, plus the background of lovely green foliage coupled with her bare shoulders & the way the sun shines on her hair is just irresistible, no? Anyway, chances are Rob's already created something that will strike just the right tone for the site, but still I "had" to make a plea to keep that one image in particular.
