Craigs Directory - A Few Cosmetic Changes

After a brief review of Craigs Directory by a web designer, I have made a few cosmetic changes on the home page, namely;

1. Reduced the size of the "Web Directory" image
   
2. Changed the "Welcome" text
   
3. Reduced the thumbnail size of the "Top Ranking" websites and increased them from 9 to 12 (same done on the category selection pages)
   
4. Removed the background colours of the information boxes on the right
   
5. Reduced the size of the navigation links (top)
   
6. Changed the base colour of the top navigation links
   

Please let me know what you think of these changes.
Regards,
Craig
