Pardon The Mess

I'm trying on a new blog design since IE6 SP1 dorked up my fun little menu system. Expect tweaking over the coming week until I'm completely satisfied. Watch out for falling tags.

I like it. It looked somewhat like alert windows before, now it looks like an open shell. That's pretty awesome, but it needs to be just a bit bigger.

Whoa — did a double-take but this is frickin' cool!

*ducks*
So far, looks good

looking good so far ;)

Hehe, this is like a flashback to the old days with Windows 95. You've got kind of a retro thing going here, I like it!

I'm not sure if you care (lots of folks don't and that's cool too) but your text frames don't quite get to the edge of the titlebars in Mozilla.
It's a great design, though. I wish i could come up with something like it.

Looks pretty messed up in both IE and Chimera on OS X.

I just noticed your date headers all have the same date. Might wanna fix that. ;)

Supa Sweet! Looks like a BBS! >:)

Chris, the new design looks great. :-) Keep up the good work.

It was kind of a matter of time. The work over at Brainjar.com is nothing short of astonishing, but a little narrow in the compat dept. I understand why Mike shrank from the glare of browser support last June. Yikes! Still, he's really raising the bar on my expectations from browsers.
BTW: I never mentioned this because it sounds stupid, but I really appreciated your honorific mention of Hall in your old script-code. A lot of people delete that, and I remember holding my breath as I clicked View Source. When I saw Mike's name I jumped up and yelled “Chris you rule!” Ok, stupid part over with.

Hi Chris!
Like the new look. Just an FYI it seems to have resolution issues. At different resolutions, some of the boxes overlay each other and can't be moved. This makes the content difficult to see and read.
Outside of that is seems to work fine in IE and Mozilla.

Yet another blogger has fallen victim to the black-with white text.
My eyes cant handle it they get sore.
Maybe you could do template switch system like Robyn(http://www.tampatantrum.com/)
Or Sam (http://sammydman.com) So people could pick there favorite one?

keep working chris

AHh. You to down the tree. And its about time you updated! I think its a pretty rough design right now, like an old programmers style site. You other design rocked to though. But i did have something about how it was fudgin up in ie posted on my blog. If you looking for a good design, i could whipp up something real fast. Free of course. Only because youve helped with countless problems, withought me having to as a single question. You can read minds, that must be it. Just hit me up on my e-mail and let me know what you think. or check out http://www.piksaldesign.com/index2.php Im still fine tuning that site myself. anyways. good work =)

Woah… like totally retro, man…
