Keith and all

Janice did the page for Gary

The new page fits the exact dimensions as the old page did.

    People are way too focused on how pretty a page is rather than how
    useful it is.  Text wraps nicely. 

  Actually, it's easier to make a  consistent and effective interface (these aren't the same thing as pretty) if you do have some constraints. Allowing the page to flow all over the place to meet hugely varying screen sizes is a real challenge, and sometimes it's best to set it up so it makes maximum use of the target design size in order to make it work well for everyone. 

  Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the front page always constrained horizontally? I don't remember.
