In full bloom

18 April 2006

New design up tonight. I was getting tired of all the white and now you can see what inspired the colors of my Timbuk2.

There are a few things I am going to change and tweak, but frankly, my time has run out for the evening and I will have to fix those things up tomorrow (this includes all the bugs I've already found - no need to bombard me with snarky emails, I'm well aware of my deficiencies ...). Er, no wait. I'm busy tomorrow. Thursday then! Damnit... I'm busy Thursday too.

So, uh, soon I guess. In the meantime, enjoy!

Nice! Looks much better, IMHO.

Thanks Chris!

Just as a weird side-note, "IMHO" is one of those acronyms I can never remember. I constantly have to sound it out letter by letter in my mind, working out what each letter means, every time I see it.

You know, just like how I do that mental "left-right" thing with my hands when I try to remember which way is left and which way is right ;-).

I always like the acronym "IANAL" because nothing says internets quite like I ANAL. ;-)

I feel like I should now be drinking tea instead of coffee while reading your blog.

I'm afraid to send you a list of bugs... Hopefully you catch the glaringly obvious one that we get when we surf at 1024x768 with IE 6.x... Or the other missing items on the left or the missing items in the body, or the missing image, or the ... never mind... You get the idea.

Favorite Acronyms..
IHTBYB.. I hate to burst your bubble
RTFM.. Read the F!@#ing Manual
OTBSA.. Oh, to be single again

WTF?

I forgot NSFW!

You're the reason I posted that disclaimer, mister.

All those were noted last night, and then promptly ignored. I will get around to taking care of them when I actually have some time... but until then, I guess you'll just have to use a real browser *cough Firefox cough*.

I like everything, except it seems like the navigation text ("HOME" | "ABOUT" | etc.) just seems to float there.

Agreed. That was one of the things I wanted to change.

I also have been toying with the idea of adding a "remaindered links" or dashboard of links to the sidenav for some time. Haven't decided if anyone would even be interested in that link goodness besides me....

Links? Yeah, I hate those.
