Is the part about the link colour being your current hair colour still true? You seem to have removed this remark.
...Finally bothered to add a sitewide changelog to the site menu. Next objective: rewriting main page, because there's dumb stuff in there
Is there any particular reason for you not using iframes for the menu? Unless you've automated the process of updating the menu on every single page (which I did before I switched to an iframe), it sounds troublesome.
I did automate it with a script. I cannot use the iframe because then I would lose any indication of the current page (I could fix that with JS that would modify the iframe/notify it of current page so that it would then replace a link to the page I'm on with normal text but I don't want to use JS).
