Good point John, I can't argue with that :) The backgrounds are great,
the css is cutting edge. That doesn't make it a great design though.

I know I'm way out on a limb with this one, but the ocean thing really
doesn't do anything for me... The diver/flashlight effect is cool
(even though it looks a bit nasty as it goes over the gradient) and
the rendered ocean floor has really nice lighting, but besides that...

I like it :) Easy to read, I found items of interest quickly, all good

Two small problems though -- the ultra wide search input looks bad as
it overhangs the sidebar at anything more than 75% text-size (Moz1.7)
Also, the bottom radii of the sidebar are messy -- the curves have

Thanks again,

Strange, it doesn't show in Firefox 1PR, Moz1.7 or IE -- but you're
