I don't post here much, but I lurk fairly often and I'm just now starting to warm up the redesigned site. We'll, maybe not to the logo, which reminds me of those typo-squatting "what you need, when you need it" sites... :-)
Anyway, the search screen could use some cleaning up. I used the search probably 50 times before I realized the second text box is for "search by author". The "Keyword" and "Author" labels should be somewhere near their boxes so this is more apparent and the help text should be separated for legibility.
Also, the "Forum search" button is kind of hidden down in the lower left. I usually just hit the enter key, but sometimes you might need to click the button... There are other nitpicks, so maybe I should just say the screen needs a general going-over.
I don't mean to sound all negative. The search works fine, once you figure out the little quirks. I see a lot of the issues are being resolved -- keep up the good work!

I have to admit to laziness on this one... I've only looked at the search page long enough to see that my other changes didn't massively break things. I know of at least a couple of other things I need to add -- like the fact that words less than 3 letters are ignored, but I haven't gotten around to doing it yet. This is an evening project I'll put on my list for some time in the near future.
