New Site Look

tracy — Tue, 08/22/2006 - 12:01

I've spent some time over the last week and a half updating the site. Since I needed to upgrade the version of the content management system anyway, I decided to give it a whole new look. Let me know what you think.

One really nice thing about the new version is that the search feature actually works. I'm still playing around with everything, but I will do my best not to break it.
