I finally did it! I switched up my blog's design! Tell me what you think!
I've also switched back to embedded comment editors. Last time I did this, some people had problems. If you have any problems commenting, please e-mail me at skepticsplay a-t gmail d-o-t com.
I have not created a banner yet, but I did put a placeholder banner so it isn't completely obvious that I'm using a default template. I am still planning to make a real banner, but knowing me I'll never get around to it.
I also have a few other changes in mind, but we shall see.

I prefer the embedded comments much more. The only issue I have with it from a blog writer's perspective, is that how to subscribe to comments isn't clear at all. Your old way has a checkbox you click before submitting. This way has an invisible link at the bottom that takes two or three clicks.
I'm also not a fan of white text on dark backgrounds, but your colors are good.
Suggestion - it's easy to widen the post column if you manually edit the HTML.
Question: Did you use a Blogger widget for recent comments?
I've already manually edited the html to widen the column.
I used the "feed" gadget for recent comments. I choose the feed url to be the comments feed (http://skepticsplay.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default). This is just the easiest way; there are other ways too.
I'll look around for a way to tweak the comment system, but I'm not very hopeful about it.
There's a link right underneath that toggles your subscription. However, the feature only appears if you're already signed into your google account when you load the page.
As far as I can tell, the e-mail subscription feature has always required a google account.
Looks nice. The white text on dark background is a killer on the eyes, though.
oh man, i thought i went to the wrong page for a second...
