Re: HTML/CSS v. Links, Lynx and Opera 5

[Joshua Eichorn <jeichorn JoshuaEichorn com>]

After showing the new layout to a couple people, i have just one 
suggestion to make.

The left side navigation menu could use a little improvement.  The small 
size of the click
area per link, and the lack of padding makes it hard to tell which 
options your trying to
click on.

I think if you add a bit of padding things will be good.

otherwise everyone i showed it too was impressed
