A Super Effective Website

Welcome to our brand new website. I've spent a good while going through different publishing engines in great detail looking for something clean and customisable to replace WordPress, this is the result. This website is being run by Dotclear, which (except for some bizarreness with the themes/templating) presented itself well and seems to do everything I want without complaining.
In due course, I will be sorting out all the old content, starting with setting up pages for our old projects and then importing what I can of the old posts. Shouldn't take too long but everything depends on me not being lazy about it now I've got the engine up and running. There appears to be a feature in Dotclear to import WordPress data, but when I ran it everything was messed up so I started again. This time I'll do it manually, there isn't too much content at the moment after all.
Anyway, here's a few links to our old/current projects in case you're looking for them:

Wooooo! Nice template guys! One complaint is the color of the text boxes. My eyes are burning right now.
Bizarrely, the colour that's used for the text in the comment form is the same colour that's used for links; not sure why really and its hard to find a compromise. If I get more time I might poke around in the source, but I think its okay now.
Yes, much better now. Thanks!
