Default Site redesign

So I'd been thinking for a while that the old Techwatch design looked a little...stale.

Saw some nice designs elsewhere, so bought a skin, then spent a few hours recoding it. Hopefully most people will think it looks better than the original...

ALSO! We are now officially taking donations via the graphic on the top right.

Any payments go to lincsat, who will then distribute the donations to the site moderators as a small token of thanks for putting all the hard work and time into giving free technical support to everybody who has a problem with their FTA, satellite receiver, hardware, etc.

There will be no compulsory donations - and anyone who does donate does so according to whatever level they are comfortable with.

Meanwhile, the site downloads section I'm hoping will go live tomorrow - I've set up the hosting account and pointed the nameservers - once they have updated globally I can start work setting up a site to download all relevant files from. I think there may be restrictions on access, but it's probably going to be very minimal - 5 posts or something - to access a private board on Techwatch which provides links to the latest downloads provided on the new site.

Anyway - all change for the better, I think.

Oh, as for the redesign - Before and After pics:

Would have been nicer if the server hadn't been down for a few hours today - but the site has now been moved to a new server so hopefully we shouldn't get any further issues.
