The new site design is very good except for the link text running down the right side. This is really, really distracting - partly because rotated text is so unusual that your eye keeps getting drawn to it. May I suggest to replace these by small grey logos for the services being linked to. Even if these stayed near the top-right they would add far less clutter than the current design.
Thanks for your feedback, Derek. I think it largely depends on the display size that you are browsing at, but we'll take it into consideration and see if this is a feeling shared by others.
I'd hope that the display size would not determine whether or not I see text (particularly weird rotated text) or icons. Those elements of the layout should be consistent.
