   Wow Michael, I think it's a major improvement!

   I like the added width and the larger type-face. I like that you've kept the same basic theme as I find it to be inventive and quite stunning. It also seems to suit your personality very well from your readings.

   I've stumbled across something that I'm currently incorporating into my new theme repertoire, and it's trying to ditch the » and «'s. I don't expect many people to adopt this too quickly, but those trendy little arrows are actually quotation marks in some languages, and screen readers will interpret them as such.

   I've found myself using ← or → respectfully lately, but of course this is such a minor recommendation that I almost didn't mention it.

   If you're curious about other glyph type characters, a quick google search brought up http://turner.faculty.swau.edu/webstuff/htmlsymbols.html which is pretty comprehensive.

   Looks super good! Keep up the good work!

   Hey John. Thanks for the reply and flattering words as always ^^.

   It's interesting to hear about the arrow problem. I would never have known! What are the implications of using them and being read by screen readers?

   Btw, if you use twitter, I'm at 'knowingnothing' ^^
