Using Safari, a lot of the labels are too big for the buttons on the main page. Refreshing doesn't help. Not a functional issue, just an aesthetic one.

On Windows or Mac? I'm not seeing the problem myself, as Safari is one of the browsers I test with. Can you post be a screen shot and I'll take another look. This is a screenshot using Safari on Mac:

and on Windows XP:

and on Windows 7:

Hmm. Never mind. I closed Safari and reopened it, without clearing the cache, and the problem seems to have rectified itself. Which, I guess, is the best sort of problem to have.

I've made some improvements to the test site:

- Size comp now scales ships/stations to the size of the browser window, as it does with the current site.
- I've reworked the styles that lay the site out to move the scroll bar to the document area, rather than the entire screen. Again this now matches the current site.
- I've also fixed an issue when you click a link with an anchor (for example the links at the top of the 'Mail Author / FAQ' page, or the buttons on the 'Article images' page would slide the targeted area up under the navbar. This is now fixed.
- Tool tip locations are now fixed.
- Fixed the selection counters on the Other Personnel, Other Species, Ship Internals and Station Internals pages.

Test site is now turned off, we've gone live with the new version. Enjoy.
