Alex, I wrote it from scratch but I used jQuery to do the fading in/out and animations. jQuery is awesome, it lets you do cool stuff quickly.
In terms of browsers… well, very old browsers may well have trouble because the site needs the html5 canvas element to work. Version 3+ of Chrome, Safari and Firefox should all have no trouble with it, but IE needs a special plugin which I’ve included and even with that it’ll work only in version 7+.
The new look on the site looks fantastic! Nice work.

The new look on the site looks fantastic! Nice work. Love this shot, too; the greenery comes through so vibrantly.

Hear, hear. It works well and looks great! Did you write it all from scratch? How does it perform with older browsers?
