David Gileadi was kind enough to spend some time redesigning the look of
the D web site. A preview of it is up on d-programming-language.org.
This isn't about the content, just the look/style/feel.
Because no one thought to do this yet:

Now, what's everyone complaining about font sizes? Except for the citation
block, the font size looks pretty much the same to me on all screenshots
(except on Firefox 2.x, where they're slightly smaller - you're not using
that obsolete browser, are you?).
As for my opinion: I like it. I think the faded red background gives the
website a nice, warm look.
I agree that the contrast of the left navigation column is probably a
problem for some people, though.
So we can sort this problem faster by testing actual proposals: those who
complained about the menu contrast, does this look better to you?

(Font color changed to #ccc, hover color to #eee).
Also, please do not add JavaScript page elements that change the page
layout when loaded. When the Google Translate and "reddit this" buttons
finish loading, they expand the size of their container, which
shifts/rewraps the page on the text - which is annoying if I already
started reading it. (At the very least, fix the size of the floating
container box, so its size stays constant.)
