I have some initial ideas on how to design the new site. Only issue is getting my rusty Photoshop skills back in action.
Not entirely sure what I want to do yet, but thinking I’ll do an area map type layout for the menu and perhaps implement an AJAX style setup, similar to what Facebook uses (the whole remap href links to use anchors and AJAX calls), but at the same time keep it simplistic enough to still work if javascript is disabled. You’ll see a lot of ?section/option style links. Am slightly tempted to try more Apache htaccess rewrites but think that might cause too many issues.
As far as style goes, it’ll be plain lines as usual. Not entirely decided on a color scheme as of yet, but could use some input. I like dark colors and blue. As if you can’t tell that already.
Will update later if I get any good ideas.

Not sure what all your tech talk means but it sounds exciting! As for color input, I could speak for James and say green on black. your favorite blue and black is cool too. or maybe a combination of the three. hmm
