New layout is complete on the main page. Archive pages, individual entries, and post results do not reflect the layout changes yet, but comments can be viewed and posted directly from the main page. Click on a comment to expand the comment section, or show/hide all comments using the side layout. New UI also supports custom styles per author, and simplified posting interface with javascript validation. Layout tested on IE6 and Firefox 1.0.

I was just going to say that we really need to do something about the look... nice! Where'd you get the red image?

It's a lyapunov fractal I generated. The blue background is an Iterated Function System (IFS).

Do you mean tested on "IE6 and FireFOX"?

Paul.

Oh yeah, I was getting confused with Thunderbird. Stupid car names...

That problem with the text not rendering in IE is back for me.

What I see is that for this post, half the text is cut off. If you expand the comments, expand all comments, or scroll off the screen and back on, it shows up and doesn't go away. I'm not seeing it on the other posts, so I think it must have to do with the image inline. Are you seeing worse problems than this?

No I'm seeing the same thing. It makes sense that it is the images. We had the problem with the original few posts and then it seemed to go away, but most of the recent posts have not had images in them.

I fixed most of the issue, try it now. I only see a corner of the text not redrawn now (the shaded name in the upper right seems to be drawn over it.) It's called a background image, Microsoft, figure it out! I think it's smooth enough now to go with. That minor annoyance will just keep reminding you to be using Firefox! BTW, I configured some hidden firefox settings and pages load way faster now. I'll blog it.

Yeah, please blog those. I forgot how to get to the config page that Paul showed me. I'm still torn between Firefox and Avant as my main browser. I thought that the blog feed support would push me toward Firefox, but then the new version of Avant has feed support as well. I'll blog a comparison of both when I get time.

Archive pages now match the rest of the site.
