cmsms 1.7 "Cape Verde"

Products 2.8.2
FormBuilder 0.6.2
Comments 1.9.2

Using styleshout's "keep it simple" theme from 2010-04-17.

I don't think I've done anything terribly special here.  It's just a site for myself; I used it as a testbed for first getting to know CMSMS, and I've just now given it a "makeover" for my own use.

Thanks for any feedback!

Hey RideLikeaTurtle,

Your site looks clean and nice.  I like your motocycle drawings and also your logo which kinda looks like a turtle but conceptually also looks like a dude riding a motorcycle.

Nice use of AJAX to replace the main content block with the current news article!

Tips:
- Your search field should clear default text when clicked on.  I think you can do this automatically with the Search module.

- You might benefit from using pretty urls.

Cheers, I'm pretty proud of my logo.  It's my first one.

That's down to the theme author, "styleshout", I can't claim any credit for that.

Great, thanks for that -- I'll look into both of these and see what I can do.  ;)
