Redesign of SxS site in the works

First, I'd like to say I think overall the site looks good.  However ...

Frames are bad, and totally unnecessary.  Dump the frames.  If you use
CSS, you can get the effect of frames without the frames.

You'll get a more even feel across the pages if you use CSS.  Then if you
decide to change the look, you just need to change the .css and you're
done.

Using CSS is really easy and it makes it so much cleaner and nicer.  Keeps
content and markup separate.  One person maintains the .css, and the
editors can just be told which classes to use for certain effects. 
Overall site management will be simpler.
