Ship Overview Screen

I've been tinkering about with the site and added a whole new page called ship overview. This is now the default page you get taken to when you click on a ship link in the shipyard.

Instead of showing ALL the stats for each boat, it just gives you the basics. If you still want the full stats there is a link on the page to take you there, but its really intended to give people a quick insight into a ships capabilities at-a-glance.

You will also notice that when you edit a ship, you can now upload upto 3 images of it, which will be displayed on the new overview screen and I may add a ship gallery later :-)

As usual, ship editing including image upload is available to those people who are logged into the site. If you do upload images, particularly large ones - be aware that submitting the edit page can take a while as the program generates the small and large images from your source.

I would greatly appreciate any comments you may have on the new screen and whether you think the change is positive or negative; and particularly constructive comments about how to improve the user experience. If you don't tell me, I won't know!
