Ok, so I've had a good think about the critisims and suggestions and  
I thought it might be worth trying out something a fair bit different  
to the last one.

Here it is:

This layout is mainly black and white, with just a few colours to  
accent the design. I particularly liked Geoffrey's suggestion to  
emphasise a few key features of Merb. I've gone for the phrase 'Built  
for speed, lightweight, powerful'.

I also think John's idea of having code examples on the front page is  
tops. I couldn't think of anything particularly illustrative, so I've  
just put the install instructions in there for now.

And… the logo. I actually put a little more time into this than I  
originally intended. There needed to be something that would suit the  
almost monochromatic colour scheme. Also, I think the glossy/shiney  
logo look is a bit overdone by now. We should be looking to  
differentiate Merb from everything else out there.

So I created some custom type to spell the name. A logotype is the  
best solution IMO, since it's hard to link merb to a single concept  
that can be easily represented in a logo.

So! What do you guys think?
