Site redesign

[Mike Olbinski]

I think the comments section is going to be abused......

Well, they have good ways to control that stuff built into it, so it should be okay.

There is built-in spam protection, comment moderation, etc.

I like it, I think it has a nice clean look.... I did like the old one better though, primarily because it had an original feel. The new one looks like 90% of every other site out there, but I know that is the wave of the future. Even the people browsing when polled choose the new standard looks.

Weird.

I'm trying to get used to how to edit the templates...a lot of .tpl files and CSS...not very familiar with it all.

Yeah CSS isn't fun

Still looks like that Brat?

What version of Firefox are you using?

 

[bratwurst]

Does not in firefox anymore (ver 1.5.07). Still looks like that in IE (ver 6.0.2900.2180xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 -- what a joke).

Was happening in both so you did something right to fix firefox for me.

I like the look of it fine but the text on the 'main' story is too small and faint for me to read comfortably. (The normal text in here is just fine.) Of course, I didn't even know there was a 'front page' until I went to check out the new one...

It looks like it is normal size now.

BTW, if you are on any website and find the text size too small there is a quick fix for that.

If you use Internet Explorer, go to the menu and select View -> Text Size and you can increase the size of the text in your browser.

If you use Firefox, you have the same menu option, but it is even easier to use CTRL+ or CTRL- to increase or decrease the size of the text in a web page.
