Looks great overall. I like the color scheme and the details.

Some constructive critisism and ideas:

(1) I'm pretty sure that the text in the secondary navbar is not correctly centered vertically. It's off by a couple of pixels.

(2) It would be nice if the code area in the frontpage had a chunky "Try Python now" button pointing to an online python editor, with a step-by-step teaser tutorial.

(3) The frontpage lacks a button to quickly download the latest version on my platform. I had to look twice to find the 'Download' column.

(4) The search box is a weak point. The magnifying glass is not aligned properly. The grey dropdowns feel a bit disconnected from the rest of the design. You're going for shadows and emboss, but that's completely flat.

(5) The position of the 'Socialize' dropdown is a bit random. It could be placed as another tab in the secondary navbar or in the footer.
