I don't have anything against the web site, I like it, but I kinda agree that these banners are too big and a bit negative/unprofessional.<br><br>Take this for example:<br><br><a href="http://www.freeswitch.org/ads/ad8.jpg">http://www.freeswitch.org/ads/ad8.jpg</a><br>
<br>When someone looks at that the first thing they get is a negative feeling and that's not good, doesn't matter what the message is, the negative feeling is there.<br><br>So yeah, I kinda agree with you.<br><br>

My company is currently investigating a couple of projects that may take<br>
me in the direction of FreeSwitch... In general, our management does<br>
not often consider open source software for projects such as this, but<br>
I've been successful in proving to them recently that open source can<br>
deliver.<br>
<br>
FreeSwitch is a *very* professional and polished product, I can tell -<br>
from the code and from the community.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, I've been hesitant to send people to your webpage lately<br>
because it went downhill a few weeks ago. Whenever I think about one of<br>
our executives going to your webpage (after my recommendation) and<br>
seeing a picture of people clanking beer glasses, or some idiot tied up<br>
in phone cables, I cringe. I know you're advertising for ClueCon, but<br>
honestly, some of those huge images on your front page really knock your<br>
product down a peg in professionalism.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I'm pretty new to the community and I don't claim to be a web<br>
designer. You have an excellent piece of software, but if I didn't<br>
already know that about FreeSwitch, your webpage would not make a good<br>
first impression.<br>
<br>
Please take that for what it's worth... I wanted to voice my opinion<br>
because if I'm thinking it, others may be as well.<br>
Thoughts anyone?<br>
<br>

(Have I mentioned how awesome your source browser is though??!!)<br>
