I have a couple of quick criticisms.

1. I like the big "D", but it takes up a lot of space (much screen real estate
is wasted on the sides). Shrink it down to the size of the PHP logo at
http://www.php.net/, and it'd be great.

2. I like the look of the tabs at the top, but I'm not sure how'd we'd get them
to work with the template or what they'd say for Wiki4D. But perhaps the Digital
Mars website could benefit from something like that, though.

Also, the color scheme seemed a little dark to me, but that's probably more of a
statement about my personal taste than a criticism of what you've done.
