Gratuitous, yes, that would be wonderful! Obviously, my polishing skills aren’t all that. I’ll email you.

Hey Ash, would you like me to polish up your banner? No artistic changes, just recreating the blurred or pixelated images. Let me know. Good cause; no charge of course.
I think I like the new layout. Don’t like the accent colors. They don’t match the header.
Is there a way to pick up the colors of the header in the layout?
The header is iconic. I love it. It might be fun though, at some point, to make a new one that recycles elements of the old one. The marquee for sure.
Your header finally fits half-decently in the frame, hooray!

I agree….miss the old Ashvegas art. But everything else is good.

I like it. It looks clean, classy, austere, serious, and sharp.
For the nostalgic, you could always provide a link to the old logo.

I cast my vote for missing the Ashvegas banner

Thanks Arwen.
Good suggestions, Bulldog. Thank you!
Dad, yes, I agree. I’ll figure out how to work in the old logo.

Looks good, especially the serif typeface, with 2 suggestions: 1. Use the old Ashvegas sign in the top right corner, scaled to match the far right column width. 2. Make the inbedded links in posts more visible – the burgundy type doesn’t show up very well as a link.
I like it but I think I will always miss the ‘Ashvegas’ sign.

I like it – clean and functional – I’m sure it’ll look even better with a bit of spit and polish… the smaller banner works a whole lot better on sub-notebooks too (and my Nokia N800)!

Thanks Andrew. I need to play around with font and type size, as well as links and such. But I think I like it…

My .10, FWIW.

It sort of reminds me of an Ikea. I like Ikea.

I think it’s a huge improvement, keep it up.
