What I meant was that (if things are as I think they are), then even when the
calendar is over/near the top menus, you're still able to use it as before.
Which is fine because you only use the calendar very temporarily to navigate to the desired date('s puzzles). Thanks for having fixed that small bug.
Which I actually regret not having posted to the "Bugs and Errors" section so as not to clutter this important discussion about the new design.
Speaking of which, I like it better every time I return to this site.
The big bar of deep blue and green may be a bit distracting at first (as pointed out by sheldolina), but once you get used to it it somehow lets the eyes rest and gives the main page a more structured feel than when the contents (buttons etc.) seemed to be floating in a sea of white.
I particularly appreciate that you didn't adopt the ("modern"/Metro/"flat") tablet-oriented design known from Windows 8 etc. I view calcudoku.org almost entirely on a desktop monitor, once in a while on a laptop, and never on a tablet or smartphone. With the new design it still looks like a "real" webpage rather than having that annoying "appy" look.
That being said, I suspect that the new design also looks great on tablets, smartphones etc. If that is true, then you have somehow managed to square the circle
