How about if I add a "Recent News" section between the body and footer? Sort of a small feed that shows the 3-5 latest articles. I'll probably also add a twitter feed (should the GIMP devs want to tweet their progress) and a latest books feed or something along those lines. I've updated the demo with this but for now it's just to show where the feeds would go. No styling has actually been added yet.

That's a pretty cool idea.  Considering the space allotted for it I think only 1 article would be enough.  If I see that one article has changed I would go to the news feed to read more news :).

Oh and I'm not sure if you guys are thanking me for making the site or for designing it. If it's for the latter, then please know that I had no part in it's designing. That was all Mike Finch.

Ah I forgot Mike Finch was the designer; nice shout out.  I give props to both of you.  Nice design and good conversion from template -> html.

One other thing I'd like to add.  Your html doesn't pass the W3C Validation Service.  I think we should follow the HTML5 standard.  Here's a quick URL for your convenience.
