Well done Paul, it finally looks "at home".  The only issue I can see
fit to point out, is the green background on the FAQ pages.  Granted 2am
may not be the best time to judge, but the contrast seems a little harsh
- perhaps the 'What is GNOME?' box on gnome.org, and the schedule on
gnome.org/start/2.7/ might persuade you something a little more pastel
might work?

  Replicating the common gnome / download / users / developers etc below
the header image would score brownie points, but all in all, a damned
fine job.
