You guys might want to consider a post or something to that effect clarifying this. I totally understand this and what you guys are doing, but I imagine it could lead to irritation and frustration down the road if it’s not clarified.

HBR licensed National directly with Village, then asked us to provide the conversion and backend services. We’re doing lots of different types of licensing these days, some of which we’ll be rolling out more widely. No announcements yet, but soon.

There is no color except for the red links and the banner ad. I don’t think red is a great color for ALL of the links since red is used conventionally to get attention. My eye wanders on this page, so I am not at all sure what the designer wants me to pay attention to. Business doesn’t have to be boring, unfortunately this site is “forgettable.”

Ever since it was used in Eye 71, I’ve been dying to use it. Am I missing something?
