There were a few others giving me similar responses. I
guess I'll go back and tweak the color scheme some
more.

I thought I would be the only one since I'm still
using an older computer ... there are things to avoid
to make it render faster. I'll see what I can do.

Just be glad that no one will ever see the one with
the slowly moving ripples (hugh gif) in the
background.

It's always fun to push for the edge with only limited
resources (okay ... I'm just cheap :) ). I mean, who
could have guessed where that translucent block on the
right was coming from? ;) With fixed structures and
limited <div>s to play around with, it could be really
challenging just to break Sage from its shell and mold
it into another form.

And you are right. I'm running out of ideas fast ...
