I actually quite like it. I don't agree with the author's point that it gets "sludgey" in the middle of the gradient either. It's fast and the contrast holds up

I actually quite like it. I don't agree with the author's point that it gets "sludgey" in the middle of the gradient either. It's fast and the contrast holds up and it isn't too busy. I do not like Ron at all but his web team/person did a good job IMO.
