Well, I'd like to provide step-by-step suggestions both for use in tweaking 
and created something new (as I've been doing the past couple days on
blogspot). I also like to make Fireworks concepts in free time, and it's helpful to flush out ideas. I will be creating an area to collect comments on those as well, so that they can be brought back in as baby steps and 
components of a larger new design.


FWIW, I would certainly be able to take a Fireworks/Photoshop concept
and turn it into XHTML and CSS if you or anyone else lacks the time.
:)
Its actually not the XHTML/CSS/JS conversion that would take a ton of time. In fact, I did the type concept in CSS because it's more accurate. The Drupalizing is the time-heavy part.
Ideally, I'd love to create and implement an overall new design. It's my personal view that while components of Shijin are useful, it would be better to integrate them into something new, rather than integrate other concepts 
into something old.


I'm sure we're all agreed that if you (or anyone else) were to produce
something that most see as a marked improvement over the current
design, we'd happily adopt it. The best way for that to happen is with
exactly what's occurring now, small iterations and improvements, with
constant feedback!

I agree with you on taking the good of Shijin and integrating it into
a new design. But that's perhaps a lot more work than the alternative.


Perhaps.




So now that I think I've defined what I'd like to do (minimally, and
ideally), what's your view on blogger vs. blog-o-sphere?


Looking over your Blogger posts I don't see anything that wouldn't be
appropriate on the Haiku site. My personal feeling is that Blogger is
the right place for it for the time being. When/If things start
progressing further we can think about moving it to the Haiku site if
only to engage the rest of the community in the discussion.

Exactly my thought — feedback and input is important, and I don't know if blogger will accumulate enough comments to be productive.
