You did a hell of a good job optimizing it too. You should be proud.

Thanks for all your help on http://ozzmodz.com and giving me the intial kick in the pants to make it better. I still see some ways to shave some requests so I haven't stopped yet.

You don't like the parallax background? I thought the way it scrolls up with the content is neat. Although subtle, the background under the breadcrumbs allows you to see the water of the background image behind it which moves away as you scroll down the page...the hope was to make it look like you are looking up through the water surface and as the background comes into view, the hope was it would encourage checking out the entire page rather than just the top.

While I think its cool though, if the popular opinion is to ditch it, I'd consider it for sure. I don't want to fix the position though as I think having the reef scene at the top makes page look too busy. (I could make a new background that was shorter to hug the bottom and ditch the current one.)

Good point...I'm working on a home page using the CMS system, so the article tab would eventually go somewhere, but in the mean time it makes sense to disable it.

I also wonder about keeping the Blog tab. My site didn't have blogs before so there are no blogs to display. None of my members have gone in there and created a blog and the site has been upgrade for a few weeks now. Not sure its worthwhile to have blogs or not? Does anyone with a forum site get a lot of bloggers?


I appreciate you guys taking a minute to look and give me feedback.
