Was gonna make this a comment under the previous post but after typing a bit decided it deserved a post of it’s own.

Sorry for the early morning shock, Steve. 😉 Got to looking at the site last night and the whole thing was just looking stale to me, so I got to poking around the web and this is what I came up with after going through a few hundred wp themes.

Been working on it a bit today (after sweltering outside for most of the morning). Got the recent comments and some other stuff back in the sidebar and this one is feeling/looking a lot better to me.

The Hobbit theme looks nice and kinda has the look and feel I would like but I am leaning more toward an expandable (sidewise) theme to make use of the available screen real estate and there is just no way to make it do that without a complete rewrite.

I may try to do something with the header on this one and then again I may not. As it sits now it seems to load quickly and should work on most current browsers, so will just have to wait and see if it rubs or chaffs…
