This can easily be reduced in size 10 times to a 20K JPEG with negligible red= uction in image quality, i.e. 'Explore Fedora's possibilities' is still reada= ble. Just need to make sure the transparent corners are changed to white to m= atch the background. Also the F13 release banner could do with the same treatment. I can see both images being visibly drawn line by line as I download the page= and I'm on a fast broadband connection. To the casual browser on a slower co= nnection the page could be unbearably slow. Usually the Fedora release tour is really informative but to have no textual = link to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_13_tour means this is hidden fo= r many people who quickly scan the page. I only found it after attempting to = redesign the F12 release front page! Just a change to=20 What's new in Fedora 13? Take the tour and read the release notes. >> instead of=20 What's new in Fe= dora 13? Read the release notes. >> would at least make people aware there is more information available. All the best for the release, Al =20 --===============3045243397824231555==--
