Great job with the site zombie! I love your dedication.

A few things that I think needs to be done on the site:

The main page text describes that the original films are not longer available, but some of the average persons reading this will maybe say to themselves "what do they talk about, it's available already on the DVD bonus discs." I think you'll need to adress clearly why these aren't up to standards even though it's perfectly clear to us. I've actually heard some younger people who believe that the original films actually looked that way in the cinema. And that is a horrible truth which leads directly to the second suggestion, The Changes. The Lucasfilm changes comparison you link to is incomplete, faulty and sometimes even wrong in its descriptions. In fact, the whole article reeks of Lucasfilm propaganda that help reinforce younger people to think these beautiful films looked like shit.

I know you're planning to put this article directly on your page, when you do, my suggestion is that you write your own descriptions and fill in the blanks. I can help catalogue the changes if you want.

Yeah, I remember thinking they didn't get every change, but if you know offhand already that would be a tremendous help. Its so tedious to go through and catalogue all this stuff. I've been avoiding this article because doing that, plus making my own caps or modifying the existing ones is just so much work, so any help here would be great.
