 		Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and while I can appreciate this look is unusual, I really dig it. You are always free to make your own custom css for my site, of course. Hmm, now I am thinking about adding built-in customisation support, but that would require user settings, and having users makes no sense until theres some kind of user interaction like a forum, or article comments, or something like that. I will save that one for later.
