I agree, but this is a CSS issue, not a content issue.  Not my
problem.  ;)

That's possible, although I'm not certain about having pictures on
both sides of the big title.  What about removing the big lilypad
picture?  We already have the icon in the top-left corner, and
hopefully as the favicon image.

What about putting the "What is lilypond" as a sidebar along the
right side (above the "Quick links")?  We might also want to
re-name "Quick links" to "Current versions" ?

Alternatively, the background could be made more prominent...
actually, that would suck for all the other pages.  Maybe just add
more images of notation as the background of the "what is
lilypond" box?
