Hello everyone,
I have been working on the pgarchives project. I have made some changes in the UI and would love to have community review/feedback on it. 

So far I covered following pages
I have a few comments, based on a quick look:

- The site is unusable if Javascript is disabled in the browser. PostgreSQL websites have a general requirement that JS should be optional, not a requirement.

- There is different styling on different buttons. For example, the numbered buttons for by-day paging look quite different from the previous/next buttons, which have a thicker border and what appears to be a different background colour.

- The thread paging buttons have different styling again (and are using a shade of blue which is outside of our normal palette I believe).

- The blue used for the on-hover row highlighting also seems unnatural. Perhaps a light grey would work better here?

- Perhaps the Previous/Next buttons should be at either end of the "per-day" buttons, rather than on a separate row?

- The lists of messages are (intentionally) a lot more compact in the current design. The new design looks nice, but would require a *lot* more scrolling as each row is now at least two lines of text. I wonder if there's a way to keep at least some of the compact-ness, whilst still making it look nicer.

Thanks!
