I like it more than the previous redesign. Will you be changing it weekly?

That would fry my brain.

No, this version will be hanging around for a while. I'll probably make some minor tweaks here and there, but I don't expect any major changes like the last two to happen for quite some time.

sounds_sound is right. The big update a couple of weeks ago helped provide some fresh perspective on the site. Part of me hesitated changing again so soon, but I didn't want to settle into a design when I was pretty convinced that there was something better.

Actually, IMO it might be a good idea in the future to plan redesigns in two phases from the start. The first phase shakes things up and experiments, and then the second phase takes what you've learned from the first phase.

I'm glad that you see it as an improvement, btw.

Ha. I was thinking that myself. I have a feeling this one will be sticking around for a while. Sometimes you just need to do some spring cleaning and rearrange the furniture before you can see not only what you liked about the old setup, but also what needed some elbow grease.
