  James, do you mean the "text only" low res version of the website, void of images, banners, background colours and fancy fonts?

    Hmmmm - where's that then?
    
    That may look a little *too* obvious though ;o)

      Don't bother, James, just stick strips of masking tape across the screen below the tool bars and down each side, and colour it in to your taste. "Fidget Widgets Inc." or "Hole Borers 'r' Us".
      They'll never know the difference.

        John - you are a Master! That's the kind of 'cut and paste' that I can understand.

          James! What a fantastic idea! My colleagues have been very kind not to mention it, but they can hardly fail to have spotted the distinctive TSSC site.
          
          To keep Craig busy ... cos i can tell he's not at the moment perhaps he could just redesign the whole thing every night?
          
          I suppose the text only version would start to look all too familiar as well after a while, wouldn't it?

            It may of be some concern to them that I have a laptop specifically for the TSSC site... so as not to distract me from my main machine... :o)
            
            It doesnt help that theres a huge TRIUMPH SPORTS SIX CLUB banner at the top - and the blue is rather obvious too...
            
            I certainly think Craig could do something to help us poor workers out... perhaps when we get our own personalised user settings we can tick a questionaire of our interests (TRIUMPH [X] TRIUMPH [X] TRIUMPH [X] ;o) ) - and then it randomly changes the site for us each visit to what's relevant for us.
            
            I propose a list of brewery's for Don... and replace that badge on the top left with a pint of Guinness or something ;o)
            
            Of course the road to getting better is to admit to ourselves our problems... well... at least we know... ;o)
