The total size for the EuroZope design is approx 26K. This is quite
reasonable for even a slower connection. It is possible to design easy to
use and nice looking web pages that are not slow. The new.zope.org is not
great looking. It is fast though.

To quote Opus "I object, I object, By Golly, I object".

I visit zope.org nearly every day to 

1) look for new product announcements
2) as a portal to the "Zope Exits"
3) for documentation
4) to download products

Anything that slows those down is a _bad_ idea; and lots of graphics
will do nothing but slow those down.

Now... If you were to propose a "Am I hot" section where people could
submit zope based websites for peer review/rating, (preferably
multi-axis,
perhaps pretty, functional, novel, etc.) then I would have no objection.

But please leave zope.org very plain jane.
