Friday, December 15, 2006 (Some Changes)
I’ve made a few layout changes. There’s now lots of floating boxes, and less stuff going on. If you see anything out of place, or have any suggestions, leave a comment or hit me up on IM.
I’m trying to figure out the best font scenario for the dates & titles (H3’s). So far this seems to be the best on my PC and mac:
font-family: ‘Futura Medium’, ‘Futura Heavy’, Futura, Tahoma, Helvetica, sans-serif;
My windows version of plain Futura looks like junk so I added in those first two fonts, which seems to work on my setup. Do you get anything similar to these screenshots?

Lookin good Willbur. I think 10px text is doomed to be craptacular on PC without cleartype turned on, no matter what fizzle you chizzle.
PS: Bring back the adminz section. where u at bdubs?

In Firefox (PC) you entire floated box has a hover effect for whatever reason. You font is a bit tiny, no matter which ones you are using. Maybe enlarge your H tags a bit.
What happened to contrast on the web?
Nice skills.

CP, the hover is intentional.
Yeah, I’m ignoring contrast on this one so far.

damn tons of shit going on in here. you got mad hovers bill. i’m really digging the overall look though. ’stylish blandness’
the underline + border hover on the images in the post with the photos on the second row looks kind of weird to me. might be just me.
i like writing all lowercase now, i think it’s from the laziness on IRC. oh well… there’s some capitals for ya.

Thanks Foxxyz, Yeah, I need to look at some of this stuff more closely, such as all the images that are links.

in firefox (windows) when you hover on a link in the entry, the entire paragraph reflows… dont know if that is much of an issure (or intentional..just as the entire “hover” effect in the whole entry)… just something I noticed.
see the first paragraph in the 2 screen shots.
but I dig it.. and I’d also love to see the admins section back up… I’m sure bDubs has lots on his mind to put up.

and my link in that did not work. sorry.

Thanks for the screenshot Fred. The paragraphs reflowing isn’t intentional, I’ll have to check that out.
