I have a client that came to me with her departments' new web site. I noticed that the new site had a similar directory structure, but all the names had changed.. Every URL that anyone had bookmarked on the site would now be broken. Maintaining the site structure had not even been considered.
This should be the first consideration of a redesign. Is there a good reason for change? If not, don't change it. Your customers will thank you.

Finally, my backyard workshop is almost done (it's too nice to call a shed). Mark added the finishing touches to the structure on Wednesday. All that remains is to build a step or deck or whatever we decide to do.
I was very pleased with how the door came out. We had a 50 inch opening to work with, and an original plan for two 24 inch doors. Though I've always wanted a real door. After some brainstorming, Mark and I came up with the concept of a split door. Use a standard size exterior door. In the remaining space, build a hinging panel that can be unlatched and opened as needed.
Now I have the benefit of both a wider door and a conventional door. We ended up using a surplus transom window to fill the gap and it worked beautifully. Pictures to follow.
