Perhaps my reader (or my alternate reader) could comment on the new look? The only Windows scheme I like is "Desert," and I tried to get the blog to match it. Maybe I could find a line drawing of a cactus or something. I haven't yet figured out how to get rid of the white lines, or maybe I'll keep them.

I'd also like to point out that if the web had been designed by someone who knew what they were doing, this would be much easier. If professional software developers, people who have experience with different systems, object-oriented design, and the like had designed the web instead of a bunch of NGO workers, there would be no things like stylesheets, HTML, and all that other junk. Most likely billions (with a "B") would have been saved in productivity. But, whatcha gonna do?
