Thanks for the darker orange. It is a definite improvement. (This is not a retreat from my argument that there is only good and no bad to come from allowing some old themes to persist as options.)
I like that you have the large Search form on each page, but it's not nearly as useful as the Google iTT search. The latter shows you the words you searched for in context, and it takes you to the page they are on. The maemo.org search only shows you the thread title and takes you to Page 1, regardless of the location of the info you are looking for.
Can you replace the current search with the one like the Google iTT search? If not (though I can't see why you couldn't), I think the Google-style search has to be available somewhere.

Or, if the Search Box is going to use the current search engine (which is definitely a second choice for me), it should search for posts, not thread titles.

I'll bring back the Google search when the dust settles. For the meantime, I suggest you use the Advanced Search.

Typing this into a google box may help while the changeover happens:
To look up the term computer at the Itt site.(Note there's only one space in the entire line). Obviously it works with any search term or site that's not excluded purposely from google.
Same as:
to get a multiple source definition of the word "computer." (again, no space), which is much more helpful than any of the few online dictionaries that I have used.
