I realize there haven't been any posts since this morning, but surely you've enjoyed hitting reload every five minutes and seeing something new in the arrangement of various pixels!?
Maybe not.
ANYway, after a concerted round of consternation and head-scratching, it looks just like it does right now. Unless it doesn't.
The banner was giving me the most problems, so I copied the code for the popup comment box, and got rid of the banner and description code in favor of something else that I can't remember, and finally messed around with it forever. I was having some trouble with double PossumblogPossumblog titles on the archive headers, and nearly wore out the MT servers trying to fix it before I just figured it out a minute ago.
The list of horizontal links like the old site is back for your viewing pleasure, although they are a different color just to be different (and to match the template I'm using.)
The text is still not going to go all the way across, though, because I kinda like the sidebar, and having the daily calendar of posts over there, and the search box, and the category listing, none of which I had before. And having the sidebar also allows me to have the whole list of other MuNu sites on here without making the entire top portion take over. I'll be posting the quote of the week over there as well, instead of the top, and will probably move the silly saying as well. Or not. Still figuring on that one. And I'm still trying to get it a bit narrower as well so the white space is a bit bigger.
AND, I am still in the middle of a paperstorm here! I got paying work to get done REAL QUICK, or else--or else, uhhhh. I don't know. But I need to get it done.
But, keep checking back every five minutes and see what else changes!
Posted by Terry Oglesby at April 7, 2005 12:59 PMComfortable, familiar bank of names across the top and new swanky (gray-is-the-new-black) sidebar to the right. It seems perfect.
But what about the quotes? And what's the point of the Remember personal info button in the comments if it doesn't ... remember the personal info.
Oooo, look, nits to pick on my desk!
Posted by: Kenny at April 7, 2005 01:49 PMThe quote of the week will be back this afternoon--it was having a bit of trouble with the fastball and we had to send him down to the whirlpool a bit.
AS FOR REMEMBERING PERSONAL INFO--the Emperor Pixy Misa said yesterday:
"There is a problem with the way mu.nu is set up (which can't be fixed completely without re-arranging everything), but it should still remember people who've commented on your blog before."I figure it'll get fixed eventually. Maybe.
The next time the comments remember me will be the first time.
