New Layout

posted in Site News |

I’ve been testing some new layout considerations for the blog. I’m basing it on the Silver Lexus Theme by Highlands by Design*.  As you can see I’ve done some major reworking of it, and I’m no where near done yet.  It looks like crap in IE, but that is too be expected.  I’ve got it looking pretty much like it should but there are some background things that need tweaking.

I’ve also changed the feeds to go through feedburner, so if that isn’t working please let me know.  I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of subscribers I have. :)

So it may get a little wonky in here for a while.

*There’s your link for the theme.  You’d much rather have a link in a post than a sitewide footer link anyway.

    It is non fixed width - I think they call it a fluid layout - so if you have a look at it using a widescreen display, it looks kind of ’stretched’ - my two cents - but coming along nicely.

    Doc,

    What would you recommend I change?

    Try this -

    #expander {margin: auto auto; min-width: 650px; max-width:1024px; position: relative;}

    instead of

    #expander {margin: 0 -335px; min-width: 650px; position: relative;}

    in your style.css…

    restricts the width to something a bit more reasonable - it just looks a bit wacky when you view it with a widescreen otherwise..

    there - that’s about the limits of my css knowledge :)
