Also, the idea is to use small, washed-out logos for the thanks to portion
and to display them horizontally instead of vertically. Haven't gotten to
that portion yet.
One (potential) problem with the changes is that PECL and PEAR are no

position in the first place, but they do need a home *somewhere*. Haven't
found the place yet.
