I looooooove the new look! I'm surprised how quickly you put this together too. One day you tell me, "I'm thinking about changing my gallery theme." And the next day, poof! All done! I'm sure it was more work than that, but you sure do make it look easy!

and the results!

They are fantastico!
The new, lighter color is much more appropriate to your personality. You're such a fun girl, hilarious and charming to a fault. Your gallery really reflects that too. But you don't sacrifice the watery emotion either. It's a nice balance between the puddle motif and festive, brighter colors. Quite cheery and appealing to the eyes.
It's also nice to see the new thumbnails. Same style, but I think the lack of monotone really brings everything to life. It's quite vivid and manages to POP! right off the screen. Just lovely! Makes me want to give my own gallery a creative makeover. I'm afraid I don't have as many great ideas as you tho.
Your gallery is always a treat! I love this new incarnation and look forward to future reconstructions as well.

Congratulations!
