Looks good to me. Firefox complains about mixed content as we're linking to images not protected by https, but that shouldn't block people from accessing the site for now.

Um, is there any way to get more real estate at the top? This 217 height pixel limit is killing the muse!

Really? Why was I stuck on 217?

My aesthetics I do believe are within the community's standards . . . I do believe.

Can I do side curtains like the above with an illustration in the middle, so people can have different size screens/windows and the rendering knows to close the sides down before it impinges on the main illustration? Do I know what I am asking here? Hardly.

Can I just say how much I absolutely love the new Christmas themed banner. Art and VW buses-- my two favorite things!

Yes you may. Zabo has released an idiot-proof method for me to play up there. Play, I shall.

Zabo, take a bow. I have no idea how to make phone users happy.
