Ok, based on both your and Ivan's comments I modified a bit more.<br>
<br>

<br>
Making the top columns and the lower columns the same width looks bad,<br>
but I agree that the large margin between the blurb and the<br>
Documentation headline was too large.<br>
After I changed that, however, the Documentation section and the News<br>
sections did not line up anymore which looked even worse when the news<br>
section had a different background colour. So instead the background<br>
colour is used for the quicklinks. Removing any use of a background<br>
colour would makes things too boring, though.<br>
I also swapped the heading colour and the title bar colour. So<br>
headings are now a very dark blue.<br>
<br>
The italic things in the blurb are actually not links (though they<br>
could be). Without any styling the blurb would look too boring, so<br>
I'm using the same blue that the title bar uses.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>We were discussing it briefly around the office and some things I recall from that:</div><div> a) There's only so much you can do with square boxes, flat colors, and a single font.</div>
