[GREN-Exec] Please review

[John Jackson]

Theo

I agree that this is major progress on what we had before. Thanks to Patrick for that.

I agree with the comments made thus far.

I add one comment: On the home page, there is a picture showing up on the sides behind the logo, picture etc. I find that distracting because there isn't enough showing to really be a picture. It makes me wonder what the picture is but I can't get to it. I think we should leave those sidebars off.
