What did i wrong about the Logo?

Good Point! I will change/add this.

Good Point! I will create one.

Thx :)

You are right. I will change this.

How about a dHtml Tool-Tip?
I think it takes 200ms to click, or just hold the Mouse for 200ms still.
This would be the same with one click.

How do you mean this (32)? Sorry, i don't understand it :)

> Chart 32: This is very nice too, but it should be possible to view an

Was just a Idea :)

> Chart 39: It's not very good, to call the dashboard T3Board.
