I have just turned on a major style performance overhaul that includes a couple of new features, though primarily was all about performance enhancement.
Basically, all users using a newer browser that is web standards compliant just stripped around 60 uses of gradient images from being loaded, as they're now all CSS3 gradients, which means no images.
The logo is now CSS loaded, and some other style performance improvements.
If you experience an issue, your first step is to drop your browsers cache so that you're using the latest data in your browser, as browsers cache pages to speed loading at your computer.
All the changes are completely backwards compatible, which means those who don't use newer web standards compliant browsers will simply see the same thing, but by use of images instead of CSS.
How Does CSS Improve Performance?
To keep the answer simple, CSS loads once to your browser cache, then it runs from there. So every time a page loads requiring something, it means less to load from the server (images) as the same can be accomplished in newer browsers through the use of CSS3, thus near instant delivery of a page depending on your computer, browser and web connection speed in relative proximity to the server in the US.
If you experience an issue and have performed the above cache removal, the please take a screen print and attach it here, with the browser version being used and OS type (Windows, Mac, Linux).
