I second that!  It's good to have a designer on board who can tell me
where my UI is going off the deep end.

voting system is another app.  It needs a rewrite, though, and should be
redone in turbogears.  It's low priority.

The account system is going to have the backend rewritten sometime
between now and F8 but you shouldn't let that stop you from redesigning
the front end as that's in desperate need of a rewrite.

+1.  Although there's also a lot of bang-for-the-buck in designing some
turbogears templates as most of our new in-house development will use
that framework.
