It's done. You may need to hit your reload button if it doesn't look any different than v1.0, below.
My friend Justin Owings and I went through quite a number of iterations to get to what I consider the final. All other color schemes -- though nice -- didn't quite make it. More orange and red in the sky was a nice touch but in the end it appeared the guy ought to be holding a surfboard and not a spear.
What's funny is that Justin pretty much hit it right on the nose on the first go. Trying a bunch of other stuff was necessary to be assured of that. Here are a bunch of other sites Justin is involved with and has done design work for. So, if you need any graphic design work, keep him on your list.
Later: In an entry of his own, Justin demonstrates exactly why I commissioned him for this work. In fact, once I decided on this route, hiring Justin for the design was the first and easiest decision, as you'll see if you read his post.
