Hi, You have done a great work and I liked the Fedora 13 download page but I would ask why the website team didn't made the torrent download link more visible to users. I personally prefer torrents as it's much faster and I do serve the community by seeding. I had uploaded 586GB of Fedora 13 Alpha from my PC last time. I think majority of users as far I know prefer torrents. So, there should be the torrent link along all the download now buttons or at least it should be mentioned at the top front of Get Fedora page under the Other Options section.
It would be great if you can update it on early basis. For further releases please keep the torrent links on more visible sections of get Fedora page.

We have recently added a "Other ways to get Fedora" section to http://get.fedoraproject.org that links to all the different options. Http/ftp downloads are much higher than torrents due to various reasons and the website is designed to reflect that usage. Thank you for seeding the torrents and providing your bandwidth. That is a helpful thing to do.

Yes! I have seen it and that's what I suggest should be more prominent rather then putting at bottom. Maybe some other folks also didn't scrolled down at first like I did.

Yes! some times it's more speedy then torrents but the reason I prefer torrent is the wish to give back to community and its easy in torrents. One can server from 1MB up to GBs as much as one likes.
Well, that's just my suggestion to improve user experience for torrents. Overall the Download page is well built.
