Thanks. As for designing the Haskell web site: I don't have any experience with making templates for
MediaWiki, but I can at least give it a try. Is there anywhere I can download an offline copy of the site
so I can start experimenting?

That does indeed look better, thanks. I've updated the title on the live version.

Photoshop for creating the concept and the images. Sublime Text for writing the html and css.
