Been working with the BG image. I combined your original tile into this which is tiling on center on the page so at least the geometry is symmetrical.

Not quite sure what you mean by 'section'. The main categories ie. setup, install etc. or the sub-sections under those. I am fluent in boxes/css. Let me mess with them. BG addressed in a separate post.

You don't have to mess with the excludes file for it to work correctly, but you might need to exclude any large files or directories. Note that there won't be a separate /home in the live iso, but you can re-create that on the next install.

I'm going to have to do a LOT of excluding as I have almost 200gb in squeeze . . . I do a lot of audio/video editing.

I'm also OK with just using the Howto section of this forum for all the documentation. And as for getting on wikipedia - I know nothing about that subject.

I wouldn't mind trying to deal with wikipedia but I don't want to register an account in my name. Give me a UN/PW and I'll try do it.

That does look better. Here are a couple other ideas (other images) -

I guess I mean subsections. Another blank line (or equivalent) at the end of each, I think.

I vote for deep space. That's what I'm using on my desktop. Other one is a little too dark (and a bit creepy IMO). Somehow the pinkish thing never seemed to suit refracta (but the image concept did). In the end, your choice, fearless leader.

I 'deep-spaced' the pages.
Worked on the markup with a proper CSS file. Look at the html and see what proper markup looks like. Still a few hacky workarounds but not many.
Put the team members in one solid container. Looks better imo.
Plenty more white space on the release notes page. Enough?

Yes! I like it. There will be copy changes, but... not today.
Thanks again for doing this.

I took the liberty of adding the description of the installation process from this post to the release notes. OK? Would be good to have a similar description for snapshot. Both can be linked from the wiki.
Starting to work on the installer blurb for the wiki. Should be up later tonight or in the morning.
