Things you may not know about VV

[Second Summer]

• The menu system comes in two languages. There's a link at the bottom of the page to change
• The name VeggieViews was suggested by Ball and Chain (the second member of VV).
• The host (linode.com) was suggested by beanstew (third member of VV) who is also the person I tend to consult for sysadmin-type advice.
• I considered several domain names before landing on veggieviews.com. veggieveterans.org was one, as I contemplated focusing mostly on long-term veg*ns. Tho I first wanted to name it veteranveggies.org, but apparently that could be mistaken for veggie military veterans....!

I thought there was more, but that's all I can think of for now

Just joined from VB and dudes, this site looks pretty great so far. Load time is super fast compared to VB

Also, in case anyone hadn't noticed it, there's a quick navigation link. It's this itty bitty little icon down at the bottom of the page in the right hand corner of the screen.

I think it should involve cats in some way.

No. My suggestions in that thread were a direct response to the OP, not an opposition to your design.

I like personal avatars because it allows me to quickly ID someone visually.

Go to your profile page and select "avatar". There will be a browse box that will allow you to upload a picture as long as it fits within the size requirements.

Yea, but remember, it was in response to the OP and then to someone else who commented specifically on my idea, not intentional opposition to your stuff.

I was going to suggest a carrot for men and a broccoli for women, but your design is much more obvious.
