Hi Jef, Thanks for the suggestions. Don't worry - you don't sound mean ;). It's easy to miss little details sometimes when you're finishing things up really quickly during lunch :) On your first point, I had the background quite dark because I didn't want the logo to get lost. On one of my monitors (not calibrated, mind you) the logo on the first page got a bit lost in the background, so I made it darker to be on the safe side. That said, I like the change you made with the background. I do like seeing the pattern all the way up the page. To your second point, grr stupid OOo... Thirdly, I like the change to the question text - it does make it more consistent. However, I think changing the position of the contact info/logo to the right corner makes that corner look a bit crowded. Thanks for your input - it's very helpful! Let me know if you have any other ideas!
