this is very easy with vimeo, but the problem of the" vimeo video group"<br>

when you click "development" you mean? This can be normally easily<br>

other comments:<br>
- I think it should be nice to have a large picture header, maybe<br>
something like max has done for vimeo:<br>
<a href="https://vimeo.com/groups/puredata" target="_blank">https://vimeo.com/groups/puredata</a><br>
it will "keep together" the whole page.<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>sure, but cannot do it from the css.</div><div>So I'm waiting to get the css done first.</div></div></blockquote><div><br>I agree with your previous comments/decisions Marco.<br>
<br>About the main page: a large picture picture header is what we are seemingly all talking about. The question is it's content. I reckon it shall not be static, but something that dynamically changes over time. My vision is to have that kind of carousel [1] which would rotate content. Now, the content could be from Vimeo, but I agree it's risky because it's beyond our control. The Exhibition, on the other hand, seems just right, because a carousel doesn't have to have so many elements anyway.<br>
Of course it's more than CSS. When it's decided and you think it's time, I can help with putting it together.<br><br>[1] some carousel examples: <a href="http://www.smileycat.com/design_elements/carousels/">http://www.smileycat.com/design_elements/carousels/</a><br>

<div><br>On a large screen it looks fine to me.<br><br>a new observation: visited links have their own color (i guess they shall not) which seems to be dark grey at some parts of the page and some pages, and purple on some other pages<br>
