you missed one - the "Home" text link on the actual home page still goes to /wp_test :D

also - maybe just by strange browser on Windows Server 2008, but many times when the home page loads the first time, the first image with the tent is all distorted and it only clears up when the rotation goes through to the next one. On this computer I am on with win7 it doesn't seem to do that.

Hmmm.. No wp_test in the home link for me.. Might be another browser related one. I'll look into it.

Yes, on some browsers (Firefox and IE I think) I've notice that first image doing that. Not really any modifications made to the code of the front end so I'll have to ask the theme developer about that one.

the link I am talking about is circled in blue on this screen grab that also shows the distorted image (scaling is non-proportional to display size)

Think I fixed the home link. The distortion issue I'm aware of. It's only that one image, I think.

What, you mean the tent doesn't really look like that?!?!? I thought it was one of those Harry-Potter-Type bigger-on-the-inside jobs...

Actually, I don't. Link works fine for me. Are you wanting me to embed the graphics from the link or something?

Obviously, I'm focused on "codding" issues.

I think I have the frontpage image distortion issue taken care of. Please test on your end and confirm.
