Obviously you like it; you put it together... 
But it worries me a bit that it's apparently about what you like, as opposed to what's best for GetSimple.
It's not the update itself I have a problem with; I think we can all agree it's a good time to get the site's design updated... It's more what it's being updated to. It seems a good time to start presenting GetSimple as a professional and mature CMS; and since the homepage creates the first impression for new visitors; it deservers more attention and a better design... In my opinion it really doesn't do the CMS justice...
Since GetSimple has a great and active community involved in moving forward; why not make the design of the new site a community event as well? We could put up a contest, having everyone interested submit a design after which we could vote for the most popular one. Might be fun and surely we could come up with a great design!
