   Spiffy digs, dude.

   The columns on the right are a bit too busy for my test, but that may be because I’m not yet used to them…

   I’m not sold on the arrangement, but I like the way this theme handles the two columns on the right more than my last theme. I think it looks more “clean”.

   I really like that I can have my “medicine” widget span both columns…

   Love the header, I think I see the appeal of the columns. Time will tell.

   I approve of Tux’s presence on your mind, so to speak, in the header. But I also agree with Janiece that the columns are, I dunno, sort of cramped. But overall it’s a really nice look. Kudos.

   I, too, love the header. Well done, Kate! I have a texty two-column right side, so it works for me - but I can understand how some folks might find it busy, too.

   Nice re-do! I’m working on one too.

   It’s not bad, the header brightens up the whole site which is nice.

    Love the new digs Shawn…I brought you a housewarming present…
    (hands Shawn a 6 of Guinness.)

    I think the wordy-ness of the side is just something that takes getting used to. (nice job on the header Kate!)

    I love the new header. I agree with Rainbows — it’s much brighter and more cheerful and more in keeping with the tone of the blog (despite your occasional rants

    I love the new design and especially the header. But as I note over on my blog, beware of exploding penguins!

    I think this is the coolest header ever. I’m not use to feeling jealousy on this level. Darn you Shawn P0wers!
