I have also tried to design something myself (although I'm not

I'm not entirely satisfied with it but I believe that it looks
better
(or at least more modern) than the current design.
So, what do you guys think?
I'm normally very skeptical and critical of "staying modern"
(and regarding someone's mention of Win8 - I find Win8
downright UGLY) - However...I really like your design, quite a
lot.
As long as it's:
- A normal reflowing layout (not a static fixed-width one or an
auto-rescaling one)
Of course.
- Doesn't require JS (optional JS enhancements are fine)
I was told you would oppose usage of JavaScript. :)
But as I've said already I plan on using JavaScript to enhance
things a bit only, site would function normally with JavaScript
unavailable/disabled.
- Works reasonably well on mobile *including* a complete and
total lack of that "no zooming allowed" abomination that seems
so popular these days (As far as I'm concerned, full
user-controlled scaling is *mandatory* for good usability on
tiny hand-held devices, especially on these "modern" capacitive
ones incapable of registering presses from anything more
accurate than a blunt finger - or for anyone with less than
20/20 eyesight)
Agreed. And it shouldn't just work reasonably well on mobile, it
must work flawlessly well :)
