Correct.  It's looking like we're getting some momentum toward making
that happen, and I think a small-scale graphic redesign is perfect for
verifying that we've got enough resources to start thinking seriously
about bigger projects.

The one thing I absolutely do not want to happen is get about 60% of the
way through a major site restructure that stalls.  I've had too many
bitter experiences with that kind of thing even in the context of paid
jobs where supposedly someone had a defined responsibility for it.
