I want to go on record as saying, "I don't like it much".
Why is my opinion different from the others?
Well, it looks like something a techno-dork would produce. There is no style, no graphical feeling to it. At that level I prefer plane text. I dislike the windows look of it immensely. Of course, as you say, you are kind of stuck using WYSIWTGY (what you see, is what they give you) software.
The above, of course, is only my personal opinion; but I never went along with the crowd just to be popular, and would rather report my honest feelings about it.

I have been (slowly) working on my new web site design. I am, as always, frustrated that my WYSIWYG code generator (Adobe GoLive 5) doesn't always yield pages that look like what I laid out. Anyway, some fiddling to do, but the basic design is fairly well set.
See http://home.earthlink.net/~smh645/A_20-2.8.html for a sample page. None of the links are active, this is a one-page sample. Let me know if you have any comments.
The basic, major difference from the existing site is that each lens has its own page. Actually, two pages; one with Detailed, one with Brief comments. Within each lens category (e.g., short telephoto) there will be a list of the lens on the left side so that you can jump directly. The button bar above will take you to an Intro Page on the selected category.
Main advantage to this design is that you will be served pages 12-17k at a time, not 250k at a time. And also the frames are gone.
