Peter,

I agree that navigation on the website is a mess. This is not due to the looks of the links but rather due to the illogical spread if links on random pages. Part of this is due to the Ludwick's determination to separate the promenader pages from the rest of the website.

Home pagelinks:

[demos are somewhere]

So anyone who wants specific information has to figure out that there are three "home" pages and guess the right one. Most of the above should be on one page and not scattered amongst three "home" pages.

Having links that say: "click HERE" makes it harder to find links.

The whole top-level of the website needs to be changed.
