Talking about the headers is not bikeshedding. The headers on the page are
not very relevant to an education focused desktop environment - they are
headers for a traditional dekstop environment.
The sections are not sensible in the context of Sugar - and the "Education"
section is almost like a joke.
Logical section headers are just as important as good text. People looking
at websites are often very distracted and need very logical things before
they scratch their head and look else where. I'm being a little assertive
- but we should change the headers!
Also some very unimportant stuff: Portfolio, Journal and Paint all have
different color palettes for their icons :(
Thanks,
Sam
