New layout

Posted on Sunday, April 29th, 2007 at 11:49pm.

I don’t normally ask this but could you guys tell me what you think of the layout? The colours look like they might be a little too bright but I think that could have something to do with the colours of the last layout (being very calm and all that ).

I really like this. I think it’s the closest I’ve gotten to the typical Web 2.0 look…

Internet Explorer 6 didn’t chew it up too badly; only the horizontal menu needed special coding (’cause I just could not get the bloody thing to look good in IE and every other browser I have installed ).

So…what do you think?

EDIT//
Would anyone like me to bring the themes back? I love this current default theme but I know some people don’t like all of the white or the shade of pink or the brightness of it, etc.

Out of Paracetamol

Posted on Saturday, April 28th, 2007 at 3:11pm.

What would you expect to happen if you were to take a paracetamol tablet that was one year and three months out of date?

I’d expect one of these things to happen:

it would make me sick (most likely but my stomach could probably do with a spring clean… )
it would be extra strong (perhaps it ages like wine – the older it is, the better it is? )
nothing would happen
it would act like a placebo^{^} (nothing would really happen but “mind over matter”; it would make me think that the pain’s gone)

I think I found one

Posted on Friday, April 27th, 2007 at 10:46pm.

I think I found my new blogging tool. I’ve installed it onto an unused domain for now, just to test it out and fiddle with it.
I’ll get on well with the admin panel – it’s not confusing at all. I can have as many categories as I like for each post, I can have pages, RSS feeds…
I don’t know how easy making a theme for it will be, so I’ll probably make a new one rather than fuss around trying to get this one “converted” (it’s okay, I’m sick of this one anyway ). I also don’t know whether it’ll mess with my hand coded pages or .htaccess – I’ll test all of that stuff out tomorrow.
