Great Design with One Caveat

update Never mind. It's because I'm using the Le Breeze theme.

GUI Galaxy looks great , but how are people supposed to scroll those frames if they don't have a middle mouse button? (This, of course, is assuming that the visitors recognize them as frames in the first place.) At least that's the case in FireFox — in Opera, there are scrollbars but the layout has other problems.

On a side note, what's with the splash page? We only have to view it once, but what's the point? I guess that makes two caveats. Great job, regardless.

I think everyone who uses a Mac professionally has a scroll wheel mouse. Yes, that's right, nobody actually uses the one button Apple mouse.

Yes, they (probably rightfully) assumed their audience is largely non-n00b Mac users.

I do hate splash screens, though...

No more comments! Either someone has violated Godwin's Law, I'm tired of the discussion or, most likely, the ten-week window has closed. You can, however, contact me through email.
