New look to blog

I've been messing around with my blog's appearance and think I've settled upon a new look. My main motivation to change it was the fact that you could never read my poll results unless you dragged your mouse over the results and highlighted them--which I doubt anyone else was doing but myself. If the new look is hard to read on your browser, let me know, and I'll play around with the colors more. I also wanted to give the blog a more modern look to match The Vampire's Wife's contemporary setting. I'm so used to making my websites have a historical feel due to my earlier books that I'm not used to playing around with contemporary designs. I'm a little like my fusty, old vampire character in a thirty-something body, I guess.
