Re: Brand new local directory - What do you think?

Personally? I think the Page needs better definition, either with a border, a colored contrast to the background, or a more unified layout. Being as white (neutral) as it is now, there is no "flow" that helps set a tone or invite an easy, lingering experience for vistor's eyes ... and the whole point of this site is conversion, right? It really starts with the Logo in the header almost being whitewashed from prominence .... needs to be set off, so people know (and remember) where they are.

But then, that's just me.
