I can't agree.  The research tells us that light on dark is bad.  We've had
direct feedback on the current design supporting this.  We also have the
fact that not a single popular website uses a light on dark color scheme.
I really don't think there can be any doubt that a light-on-dark color
scheme is hurting, not helping us.

My personal opinion is that there are critical problems with the website as
it stands right now, and I don't think we can afford to bury our heads in
the sand about it.

Yes, I admit that most of these problems I could and should have pointed
out earlier, but that doesn't change the fact that they are valid concerns.

Make no mistake, a bad website will kill our project.

I hate to say it, but I'm really starting to think that, while the previous
website wasn't good, the current website might be worse, and we would have
a much much better website if we had just stuck to the default Bootstrap
CSS (which is what most people do).
