Front end design is inconsistent

[cheryl]

• At least 4 different designs of the logo are being used throughout the site (eg favicon)
• Some parts of the design are relatively polished, while others are barely styled at all.
• Some parts have one design aesthetic (eg, gradients with drop shadows and slightly round corners) while others use conflicting aesthetics (eg, flat shadowless sharp edges; very large round corners).

These may date from 2011 when the deadline was more urgent and branding/design was rather of a lesser importance. Eventually it would be nice to see a more coherent overall design.
