Yes, I'm a firm believer consistency. Be it the coding style in a
project, fonts and layout in a publication, etc. It's one of those
seemingly minor things that makes a huge impact. Matching the site's
main page (warts and all) is better than making this into a work of
art. The site becomes a cohesive unit instead of something that
resembles the monster of Frankenstein.

I took a look at the sample provided and thought it looked much
better. Keep it up!
