So while viewing The New Republic<\/a> tonight it hit me that I should totally rip off their color scheme for my redesign. And I know I groveled at the feet of you six to help me pick a new color scheme, but we didn’t exactly come away with a clear winner, so I decided to just run with the inspiration and see where it took me. And do you know where it took me? Straight into 4 in the morning, that’s where. So thanks for voting, and sorry I acted like a true politician and said to hell with your suggestions \u2014 I’m stealing from somebody else altogether! You’ll never trust me again.<\/p>\n

To be fair, this is, strangely enough, the exact same color scheme I whipped up in 2004 for the newspaper of the future!<\/i> contest in design class where my team tied for first place. The strange thing is that I had never even heard of The New Republic back then, much less seen their website. It’s a classy group of colors. I’m really starting to like khaki and burgundy combinations in my old age. And the background, which I took from Squidfingers<\/a>, is playful so it balances out the seriousness of the other two colors. <\/p>\n

So theology&geometry v 4.0 is here hopefully for a long time. I’m dropping the bracket gimmick. I think it’s infinitely more legible than the dark teal color I had going on as a background before. But, for posterity, here’s what we’re leaving behind. <\/p>\n
