I quite like it. It fits with the dark grey which seems to be the
theme of Fremantle (and was so going to be the background of the
website for a fremantle Clutter-based project I've got in mind).

The only big problem I can see (and this is really just verbiage),
we've got top-level links for:

    * About
    * News
    * Download
    * Development

There's in page navigation for "More Applications", "Get Help" and
"Get Involved". However - and something we *need* to re-introduce -
there's no "Documentation" link. Also, this design (unless the sidebar
is permanent) has no scope for the search box[1] and log in
information being part of the permanent navigation structure.

Finally, there's no global nav for "Bugs", but that should be
straightfoward to squeeze in.

Cheers,

Andrew

[1] I think we're overestimating the power of the search: but I'd love to
    be proven wrong.
