Google's current look predates ours. Are there any major usability issues in the current GUI?
Maybe hiring a graphic designer to do some work and mockups and things isn't such a terrible idea. I realise that we're strapped for cash, but unless we want to look exactly the same in another five years (which would make us positively prehistoric), I don't think there is all that many other options.
