From where did the text come from? Some of it seems like my writing, yet a couple of points are screaming out at me....

Also, I'm sorry to say, I don't like Times New Roman. Also, I agree that white text on dark is difficult for a web page, though it might be a colour/font combination.

And the space at the top is too much.

But, all in all I really like it and I'm glad to see something up there that looks so sharp...

I've made a couple of small tweaks - fixed a couple of missing words, now off-white text using Arial font.

I've been wondering about this too, or even removing the text entirely. Hopefully Hairy will be able to come up with something.

Half of the first sentence was in the sample text Whurlston supplied, which I think was from the front page of the wiki, the rest was just some guff that came out when I started typing.

Glad that you got rid of Times Roman - that's much better!

I think the text could use a little "tweaking". So with my nose buried in a large glass of wine (hic) I offer my $0.00000002.

My thinking was that bullets are the tidiest way of conveying the key features of gbpvr. It's hard to describe numerous product features in gramatically correct sentences.

I would also tend to avoid vague terms such as "mature" and "robust". They are right up there with "quite" and "very" in the no-no list of technical documentation.

Going forward: It would be good if clicking on the screenshots did something such as bringing up a larger image (the one on the right is hard to make out).

Fantastic work again Hairy! yu da man.
