New Header for Photority

While waiting for some movie downloads, I decided to tinker again with the website and thought of replacing the website’s header.  Since I noticed that the sidebars are not displaying well in Internet Explorer, I also checked the codes.

Here’s the new header that I came up with. The images used are part of my archives that I myself have taken on different occasions.
