Wednesday, November 23, 2005Pardon The Mess...
Over the weekend I plan on redesiging my template from scratch. Please forgive any formatting problems you may come across. You will know when renovation has begun as there will be a message at the top, and the page will look really fucked up.
Happy turkey day!
UPDATE:
For the most part, everything seems to be in order. I would hope so considering I spent almost an hour screaming at Notepad (well, technically the style sheet I was creating in Notepad) because my text was coming out black - which was blending into the background and was unreadable.
Turns out I forgot a ; (semi-colon). Those are VERY important in style sheets. Kind of like the stop signs of cyberspace.
Anyway, if you don't notice what's different, there is more room on the left side for the blog entries. I moved the text so that it would take up most of the screen, instead of being confined to a small 400px area. Some of the older stories are now badly formatted with pictures, but oh well.
I also reduced the size of the right side content area - which explains the place holder pictures. I need to shrink or recreate some because now they won't fit. I've also changed the font.
Now, I acknowledge that no one cares, but I figured since I made a post on the renovation, I should at least follow up and explain what I changed! :)
Comments are welcome. If you have any problems, check two things. Is your desktop resolution at least 800X600? No? Don't complain then. Also, if you are using IE you shouldn't. But it should show up okay though. Mac users and people using weird browsers also might experience problems - even though I don't think Macs should.

It takes you a whole weekend to change your template? What are we talking here, two keystrokes?
Have fun anyway.
We're not talking a few lines of HTML and CSS here, bubba.
There's a few hundred graphics that have to be remade and another thousand or so lines of crap that I have in the current template.
And it is fun! I know you love it as well, you nerd.
