Sorry this might have been unclear Bruno -- these pages are meant to
be *promotional* in nature.  We are replacing the current spins.fp.o
site with a better one, as seen in the mockups.  The latest design of
that hub page is here:

The individual spin pages are meant not to replace spin process pages,
but to function purely as a place where you, a spin owner, can tell a
user about your spin, what it does, why it's cool, and why they should
download it Right Now from the big shiny button on the page:
