I know that no one has really noticed but I have changed the style of these pages at least a dozen times over the last few days. Wide, narrow, picture header, no picure header, blue, green, gray, big fonts, little fonts.... enough to drive me mad.
I ended up just reverting back to one of the default themes. While I agree that having a good design is important, I decided that I was going to focus more on content and general presentation rather than devoting time to an overall theme. I think that through the use of interesting pictures, sidebar elements, and of course content, I can overcome the cookie cutter style of the base template.
That doesn't mean that I won't tweak things a bit (I am thinking about moving to a 3 column layout) but I have decided not to do anything drastic - at least for now.
