Cameron & Russ,
Thank you both for your feedback! (And especially to Cameron for the recognition!)
It seems some of the folks at webstandardsawards.com and CSS Vault are being a little... ahem... forceful with their comments. :)
As for the constructive criticism:
Print CSS - I'd nearly forgotten about this until today, so I'm spending some time on bringing it up to snuff. I think it was working better early on in the development process, but as the CSS for the site changed it has ceased to make a lot of sense.
Font size - This is an issue I've actually been having a lot of trouble with, since the site is so tightly constructed. I know I could do at least a little better with the alternate stylesheets, but sizing up the fonts through the browser doesn't let me do the same kind of shifting of elements... Do you have any suggestions about how to handle this sort of thing?
(from the webstandardsawards comments:)
Colorblindness - I hadn't really thought about this since the site is so monochromatic. My understanding was that the issues were much more of two juxtaposed colors than simply one of value -- Anyone have suggestions for where to look for more on this topic?
No JS-navigation - Noticed this about the same time the site went up on there, I believe, and I must have fixed it while he was posting his comment. Funny. :)
Style-switchers - Very good comments there on this feature, which I'll take into account when I can partner up with the .NET developer. (I'm only in charge of front-end on this one.)
Again, thanks for the feedback! I'm really enjoying the discussions on this list...

The first comment is simply opinion on the design, but the second comment
mentions some good accessibility issues that should be considered.

Forget CSS Vault, I already awarded it on Web Standards Awards! :-]
