Thank you for your comments. They were helpful.

Fonts/Colors: I changed the link colors - I'm not sure why Wild Apricot used the default settings the way they did. I wasn't worried about the background color being web safe. I did try out the colors and font on Chrome, Safari and Firefox. The background color is #ffffda and there is one that is web safe #fffff0. I would prefer to stay away from pure white and darker grays. Here is a link to the web safe colors and you can pick out one you think is more appropriate -&nbsp;http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colorgroups.asp. I have also made you an admin on the site and you can experiment if you so chose. I used the red font in instructions when&nbsp;I thought were important to follow. Wild Apricot seems to use different fonts/sizes for different pages and widgets (they call them gadgets). In particular they like Roberto Condensed, Verdana and Pt Sans among others. Eventually I will try to make it more consistent. Let me know if you see any down right egregious issues that affect your sensibilities.

Image slideshow: If it was up to me I would eliminate it altogether. I really don't think it adds anything - it is only there because the previous site had one. The settings on the slide show are very restrictive (i.e., not a lot of customization capability) unless I modify the CSS, which I am very hesitant to do right now. I changed the transition to fade, allowed the viewer to cycle through the pages (which I don't like), and changed the visible time of each image to 60 seconds.

Navigation: I will try to figure out how to get rid of the dot. I believe that it may require a CSS change. The line under the title would be better.

NFA logo: Moved it to the upper left corner. As an aside and to put it bluntly, I think the logo stinks. I could redesign it but they have used it for so long that I think it is not worth it - there would be an ad nauseum number of reviews to come to a consensus.

Home page: The gadget only has a setting for margin, so I moved the sidebar to the right side of the page - there was not a default setting for padding and I don't want to modify the theme's CSS until I get more experience.&nbsp;

I hope these comments are satisfactory to you. Let me know.
