Just going on E. Liddell's opinion regarding the
full screen. If there
are no objections from others I prefer the full screen approach with no
border.
My reaction may be idiosyncratic--I saw an awful lot of those frame-at-the-top
frame-at-the-side pages back in the day (and coded the odd one myself).
E. Liddell, could you please run off a screenshot of a
version with a blue
gradient and no border for comments on the list?
Here you go.

Hi,
Well, it's almost okay this way!
With the slight gradient on the sidebar, the site is less ''bold and
serious'' than without gradient at all.
Can we test 2 little details?
1. It is possible to underline the text of the categories in the sidebar? Just to make it
even clearer that these are separate categories.
(I know that I'm usually again over-separating elements, but in this design, the way
parts are separated is a little too subtle to my taste)
2. Is it possible to replace the blue RSS logo with the standard orange one? Orange
contrasts and fit very well with blue and would make the site a little more colorful. I
can provide the icon from the KFaenza icon theme, if you want.
Another little thing, but I'm not sure it would be accepted here is a false shadow
displayed under the main screenshot, to make the site more attractive. I can provide the
false shadow picture if wanted.
Thank you!
