A New Look
December 14, 2005
THIS PAGE BEST VIEWED IN FIREFOX!
If you are using Explorer, I’m working on the wonkiness….just waiting for answers from experts.
Otherwise….
What do you think?
Be constructive. It’s the first time I’ve ever played in HTML and I know a couple of things are wonky, but I’m pretty happy for my first try!
This looks like crap in Explorer…any ideas? You know, besides getting everyone to download Firefox which is WAY BETTER!?

Well, I like the colour. And I’m glad you’re not making me highlight the text to be able to read it anymore. But I don’t like the way your text goes outside of the “page” you’ve created for it–makes it hard to read and kinda looks like the paper went through the printer skewed. And I’d like the titles and dates to “pop” a bit more.
Then again, I’m a lazy bitch who refuses to learn this stuff and just relies on templates, so kudos for trying!

You rock sista! I’m sure you’ll work the wonkiness out which isn’t a big deal really for us old fashioned nerds using IE…LOL! Looks great! Muah!

Thanks for your honesty! I have a call into a friend who knows that ins and outs of this code stuff - so hopefully I can fix it for IE viewers. I’m still open if someone else knows how.
Thanks Sassy and Laura for the love….lol!

I love it.
Is it made with tables? IE usually forgives terrible tabling. If not, it’s IE’s horrid rendering of css because they take everything good and make it proprietary.
I wouldn’t give a damn…I’d put a blurb in the sidebar about how this site it too cool to be viewed in IE.

I use Opera. It looks beautiful in Opera. And we shan’t forget the guy who originally developed css works for them. Opera handles css better than any other browser.
So, if Opera renders it correctly, it’s probably done correctly.
I can’t vouch for whatever mess it makes in a Mac tho.

Thanks Ann…….no it isn’t made with tables - I have no idea how to do that. This is the first time I’ve messed with html and I’m addicted. I truly am becoming a nerd.
The background is a couple of jpegs and I know exactly where the padding problem is, but the value won’t take a negative number to correct the problem. I’m about ready to say fuck it to IE users (sorry guys, but it IS 2005, and IE sucks!)
I don’t have a MAC (I wish) so I have idea what it would look like there.
Anyhoo - today I’m going to attack my graphics site - starting from scratch though - the one I have now is only temporary.

Karen I LOVE it! You’ll work out the wonkiness. It’s minor. The um, you know, just needs to be shifted a little. I can’t think of the word because I haven’t had all of my morning coffee yet.
Congrats, girl! You’re on your way!!

Thanks Lucinda!
Oh and Chrixean..I don’t know what an illo is, but I’m a brunette with blue eyes so a likeness maybe?
I’m on http://www.selfportraitday.com this week though if you’re curious! LOL!

Love the color scheme! I have Explorer and it was mainly the left alignment on your main block of text, but when I went into comments and looked back, everything was aligned right.
Love the design and cute name!
December 15th, 2005 at 4:22 pm

I’ve viewing in firefox and tis beautiful!

Hey! There you are! Finally, i know how you look like. Hehe. Realized we’re the same age too
Sorry, when i said illo, i meant illustration
i’m viewing your blog on my Mac using Safari and there are some words floating off the page. probably just need to fix a few bugs… Don’t have Firefox, though, but i’m sure it looks perfect.:D

Hi Karen!!! Oooo I love your new look.
I’m on my Mac using Netscape and all looks good from this end, I don’t see any floating. WTG and keep up the great work!
Loves ya, Lisa =)

I love the colors!
Fancy pantsy!
It is kinda wonky in IE, but it’s still readable, and hey…it gives it character!
