Annual Site Redesign

I don't actually promise to update the design every year but it makes it sound more exciting- as if there's some kind of recurring event that people might look forward to. This year's design focused on improving content readability. I removed some of the design elements and dead space to get enough room to expand the text size and content area. In the process I lost the indigo-themed color scheme although I hope to bring it back some day. Having both light and dark backgrounds in the main part of the page caused some grief due to the way element styles are used in this template.

The new design rolled out over the weekend to test for any major issues. I've fixed all the ones I know about so let me know if you see something broken. The site is less polished in Internet Explorer than Firefox due to the level of CSS support, but I was able to work around the one major rendering bug I hit.
