I'm hearing that the new-look site looks a bit dodgy using the Firefox browser. I'll try and iron out the problems as soon as possible. If you're using another browser and the site looks dodgy in that too, please let me know. That's assuming you can read this... eek!
The Makeover
Most of the display problems with Firefox have been resolved, although there's still a couple of odd little things that need sorting, but at least now it looks nearly how I wanted it to!
