Well in short yes the list can be longer.
As for the home page being longer, well that is only becuase I have put up the main events for the year, and kept the other photo bit too. Normally I only have one item on the home page.
Personally for web design I like to have a page where you can see everything in one screenful, so that you don't miss things that are off the bottom.
But there is no harm in making the list longer, while I have this longer home page.
If your fear of staying alive, outweighs the thrill of making the corner, brake.
