Very tasteful new look, I like the colors (except for the "links"
page, the mauve doesn't go very well with the rest). One has to get
used to the idea that a website is presented like a pdf document in
sequential order, but the clean look is quite beautiful. Of course, I
was impatient and downloaded the latest version, and now I get a couple
errors when processing, but I hope can straighten that out.
Congratulations, Hans, wonderful work!

Heh, I love those colors. Nicest composition of them all actually.
Anyway, Hans:
"stand alone" is spelled "stand-alone", or, if you would like to steer
people into treating it as a single word, "standalone" (on the download
page 1)

Hello,
I was trying to use \startfiguretext to place a second graphics within
the figuretext. This makes the main graphics disappear:
\starttext
\startfiguretext
[left]
{none}
{\externalfigure[graph1][width=2.8in]}
text text more text
\placefigure
[here]
{none}
{\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]}
\stopfiguretext
\stoptext
The result should look like
graph1 text
graph1 text
graph1 graph2
graph1 graph2
but graph1 1 doesn't show anymore (not even on another page).
Is this a mistake of mine, should I use something else (tables? --
never tried so far),
or a missing feature?
The new web site is great. Now that I can see what the
manuals are about, I am condemned to try it all out. It has already
cost me this afternoon :)

You want the 'impossible': both use the figure floater so the first one
is forgotten when the second is encountered; tables are a solution, or
maybe:
\useMPlibrary[dum] \setupcolors[state=start]
\setuplayout[backspace=8cm,leftmargin=6cm,width=middle,cutspace=2cm]
\starttext
\placefigure
[leftmargin,reset]
{none}
{\externalfigure[graph1][width=\leftmarginwidth]}
\input ward
\placefigure
[here]
{none}
{\externalfigure[graph2][width=1.5in]}
\input hawking
\stoptext
\useMPlibrary[dum] \setupcolors[state=start]
\setuplayout[backspace=8cm,leftmargin=6cm,width=middle,cutspace=2cm]
\starttext
\placefigure
[leftmargin,reset]
{none}
{\externalfigure[graph1][width=\leftmarginwidth]}
\input ward

Thanks Hans, this was most helpful!
I have another question, though:
After looking at various 'built-in' documentation styles I am wondering
about the best way
to modify one of these. I couldn't find any documentation besides how
to use the
styles as they are. So, if I want to make (say) the "green style" blue
and with smaller buttons,
are there setups for this? If yes, do I learn about these by looking at
the source, or, if no,
do I copy the source and try my best to mess around with it?

just overload them in your own style:
yourstyle.tex :
\usemodule[pre-green]
.. your modufications ..
yourdocument.tex:
\environment yourstyle
.. the text ..

I didn't figure out yet how to know which s-pre-xx.tex defines which
style, but if you want to use and modify the green one, take a look at
s-pre-02.tex or even better: general/sources/s-pre-02.pdf at pragma-ade
website. The documentation there is not visual (like in other manuals),
but pretty self-evident for someone with at least some minimal
experience with ConTeXt.
To change the background color, after finding the following line in
s-pre-02.tex:
\definecolor [OrnamentColor] [r= 0, g=.7, b=.4]
it is not difficult to guess that an additional line anywhere at the
beginning of your document or style file, like:
\definecolor [OrnamentColor] [r= 0, g=.4, b=.7]
will change the color from green to blue.
To get smaller buttons, notice the \bottomheight used overall where the
buttons are drawn. (In page-run.tex you can see that that 'bottom' is
resposnsible to set the proper bottomheight.) So
\setuplayout[bottom=.4cm]
should solve your problem. If you want to change the look of buttons
more dramatically, simply copy and modify the lines:
\startuniqueMPgraphic{RightArrow}{height}
...
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
You can try to play with single portions of settings. A very beautiful
thing in TeX is that one definition simply overloads the other, so it's
not too difficult to modify a properly designed style.
