once again, thank you VERY much for your feedback. Seems we are reaching our goal very fast!
Yes, but your changes discovered some new bugs ;-)

Non-existing Page Link Colour in Top Navigation:
Modified the colour and made visited/new non-existing links the same colour (after all, non-existing is non-existing ;-) ). Hope it's at least slightly better now.
Yes, thanks.
Footer: * I don't think we can remove text, nor does it make sense to combine two lines in one.
Can you add some max-width then? Especially the first line would benefit from it. (The goal should be to have the "The content on ..." line as two lines with nearly equal length, which should be possible independent of the font size when using the "em" unit for max-width.)
This does not work (or at least I am not able to make it work).
Without having looked at the code: What exactly is the problem? (And: don't expect IE to understand max-width [don't know about IE7])
Have added a linebreak, this also does the trick (at least for reasonable font sizes/screen resolutions).
OK, acceptable workaround. (But max-width would still be better.)
Search Box: * I would prefer to leave the round corners (they are the same as the ones used for the boxes)
round corners are OK, but they look to rounded at the search box...
Apropos search box: It seems it has a hardcoded height: which is unfortune for people who have a very large font size.
Without the fixed height, I do not see a way to make the round corners work in IE (at least not in IE 5.x)... .
Then define the fixed height for IE only please ;-)
Oh, and the layout has some problems on very large fonts in the header (tested with 300% in Konqueror - one of my favorite stress tests for websites ;-)
The same problems appear with smaller font size when the window isn't wide enough to display the top menu (home page, My talk, Preferences etc.) in one line.
Oh, and the Article/Discussion/Edit/... menu bar can hide the language selector on big fonts and/or too small window size.
OK, "white-space: nowrap" fixed that problem.
Yes.
Additionally, the left column width should be specified in em also. Otherwise the menu can overlap the content on high font sizes.
Yup, fixed that, too.
Too good, 1em less would be enough ;-) Now to the problems this change discovered in combination with large font size - see screenshot on www.cboltz.de/tmp/opensuse-disco.png ;-) - on small screens there will be an openSUSE Disco ;-)) because "Discover it" is cut off" - the search box and the "Go" button are also cut off - OTOH, there's enough whitespace (to be exact: greenspace ;-) unused around these elements - so there's no real need to cut them off - The Article / Discussion / ... bar only uses the half width, causing too much unneeded linebreaks All unused white- or greenspace is marked with red color in my screenshot.
Content Table Background: * according to Novell brand guidelines the Geeko tail as well as the Geeko head should no longer be used, so I run out of background graphics matching the theme (and on the other hand I do not like copying Fedora ;) ). I have now changed the background to light green, but I am not sure whether this is better...
The main problem I see are the thick top and bottom border lines. Can you make them less visible? (for example thinner)
Made the lines thinner and added a tail graphic - seems I was wrong regarding head and tail - they are still present on www.novell.com
Much better :-)
Also a note should be added to div.pre_hscroll saying that this should not be used for code that does not fit on the screen without scrolling. (Or make div.pre_hscroll a copy of div.pre_scroll with larger height to auto-enforce this rule.)
Another good point - I set the max. height to 25em and added a warning to the description.
Hmm, is the warning really correct? <pre> with a horizontal scrollbar. Maximum height is 25em. Please _do not_ use the regular <pre> if your text does not fit the box. I would say Please _do_ use the regular <pre> (remove the "not")
Another thing I just noticed: please add some whitespace after <div> - the next headline is too close to it. Screenshot: www.cboltz.de/tmp/div.png
This has to be defined within the individual, additional classes for div, otherwise the whole layout will break. Since there should be no need to use a regular div within the content area (use p instead), this should be OK.
OK, so <div> is reserved as freestyle element ;-) in the hope that nearly nobody uses it...
http://en.test.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Special:Allpages * I have absolutely no idea why the tables do not use the whole page width - this is why the list of all pages is messed up. Unfortunately no special style is created on this page, so there is no workaround. Please help!
Hmm, what about adding some padding (left and right) to <td> and <th> in general?
This would also make normal tables in the content area looking better (see the table on Tag_Formatting which looks quite squeezed).
Yes, seems to be the only solution
It seems you added some padding-right to <td> now. Please have a look at the table on http://en.test.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Tagformatting and then add some padding-left also. Oh, and please apply the same padding to <th> ;-) Hmm, just curious: Special:Allpages has no borders at the table, Tagformatting has borders. So there *must* be a difference somewhere... Another thing that was mentioned some time ago, but obviously got lost: The grey boxes should use a slightly darker grey. The current one is nearly invisible on white (especially on laptop displays). Oh, and is there a special reason why the footer in the green double box http://en.test.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Structural_Elements#Double_Boxes doesn't have white text color?
