Hi all,

I've got to the point where I have something to show and would like some
feedback before I do anymore.

I have tried to take the comments in the 140 odd e-mails in this thread
into account, as well as the list compiled by Quinn (thanks!) and also
done certain things the way I think works.

I hope it is at least a start and that we can build on it.

We can try other themes and layouts, not to mention content of course.
If anyone does have another theme they think would be better please let
me know and we can try it out. The same goes for the main logo as well
as all other graphics.

I wanted to include the 'wizards' I thought were available for people to
download and use to easily change their settings, but I couldn't find
them and in fact the section on the right side of the home page of the
wiki entitled 'DNS Wizards' doesn't link to any (directly). The links
for SetDNS do work, in that they are redirected by google to the new
play store but the other link to wiki.gotux.net takes you to a 'this
topic does not exist yet' message. So did I imagine these app's?

I got the  'nearest server' feature working thanks to Brian and
NanashRei, but I would like confirmation that the results it displays
are right for others as they aren't for me.

One of them is right, a server I run with Johnathan Plews but the
other in Slovenia, that says next to it, that it's a G.B. server!
I get; "Your nearest D.N.S. servers are: 37.1.89.161 (GB)
213.138.101.252 (GB)." 37.1.89.161 is a Slovenian server, not British.

I also notice that Travis's code only offers one I.P. for the U.K. and
states that there is only one. This is not true, there are 5 I.P.s (IPv6
included) at 3 different servers.

I look forwards to hearing your thoughts.

Peter
