I just want to point out that these are excellent replacements for 
Walter's own personal D site.  But I'm wondering whether it's wise to 
adopt the Mars theme for a general/public D site.  As the D language 
captures more attention, it would be best to avoid too much relationship 
with Walter's company (via Mars logo): this might create tunnel-vision 
in newcomers, causing people to feel the D language is of a proprietary 
nature.  I think it's in Walter's best interest to separate the language 
from the compiler.

Therefore, the Mars theme should represent his own D implementation.  A 
separate D website under Walter's control should represent the 
language... minus the Mars logos, but with links to his free compiler 
implementation of the language as well as the GDC implementation.

I guess this is more a discussion for the other topic currently going on.

Just a thought,
