How's this?

well, i must say i find it difficult to evaluate the design of a web site
from a png... how does it look with a real browser? are those rounded
corners made with images? are those really necessary? how does it look with
a text browser like links? and with different screen resolutions? is the
text in those tabs text or images? what about visually impaired users that
need to increase font sizes, or blind users that use text only browsers?
personally i hate those designs with rounded corners, but this is a web
site, not an album cover, and i think the points i mentioned above are more
important than the shape of the bullets or things like that.
BTW, the pngs at the /httplaulinuxaudioorgfaq/ page don't look bad at all.
IMO they'd look still better with solid colors, which is the only
improvement i can see in this new design.
Hi Luis,
W3c CSS compliant websites allow for all the above and you are still
able to have really modern, unique and interesting design.
For an example of the possiblities please visit

There's nothing that says rounded corners are mandatory but I prefer
them to straight edges for this site in particular. I think the LAD site
could handle harder corners though.
Cheers.
