[OK, CC'ed to docs and core, but replies to docs only.]

I have some comments.

I would prefer the section margin on the left, not right.

Very dark.

Very small.  It does not spread across my 1024x768 window like the
current web site.

I prefer our current logo.  More color and depth.

I think PostgreSQL should have a capital P, but I do like how the SQL
stands out.

It does have a more modern look than our current page.

I assume the gray box changes as you press on margin options.

Agreed...

Not sure if that is the 'finished concept'...or, at least, I rather
thought it wasn't...what is there is just one gif of what they are
proposing, so I sort of thought it was 'scaled' down...(view page source)

This is the one that is hitting me the most...what they are proposing is
very much a two-dimensional image, whereas what we have now is more
three-dimensional...I'd like something that "jumps out at you"...its too
flat...
