hello? can you see me? yeah, well, sorry for shocking you like this, with all this brightness...
as there's plenty of information about the reason for the redesign sprawled around the new version of the site, i'm not goig to talk about all this again, just that it had been in my head for ages and that it finally came true.
this site looks horribly in ie, i know. but honestly? i don't care enough to jump into css hacks again (this time including ie7 as well) and screw up the entire site. this is the way it is. you have been warned.
usual disclaimer: there will be bugs. if you spot one, tell me. thanks.
