That New Car Smell: Version 2.0

After a few months of enjoying our old site design, we’ve moved on to something bigger and better. I have a lot to say about the new design, especially why I made the certain decisions that I did with it, but I’m going to post those later on today.

If things seem a little strange today, it’s because the Playground is still adjusting to its new skin. We’ll get there.

More exciting news forthcoming. Back in a couple hours…

    Thanks Randa! And thanks for the info on the width of the site. I like ‘em wide, but I don’t want it to be quite that bad, ha. I tried tightening it up a bit, let me know if that’s any better.
