Some more colour, a less light blue. A non serif font because a
computer screen renders badly. Left navigation is blue on light blue
which is hard to read. I dislike the light blue. External links clearly
separated from internal links. The old design was more structured
through the blue background of the headlines. Modern people unlike me
want small text blocks. Not necessary less text but visually separated
so people believe its small bits of text.
That said, I think a professional should look into fonts and colours. I
definitely am not qualified.
Sorry for German politeness :-))
