Work Continues on New Front Page Theme

[maggot]

Refresh your cache. CSS style sheets cache seperate from their parent page.

Thanks, but that doesn't work. I could handle the font if the size wasn't hard-coded. No matter my browsers font setting (smallest to largest), the font comes out 9pt, which is very small.

I can't comment on the rest of the changes because I can't get past the font.

I'm not abandoning you maggot - Your browser wouldn't be NS by any chance? If so that's the problem - NS uses a slightly different stylesheet and I forgot to update it. Doing so now...

Ok guys, made some minor changes in response to your continuing comments.

1. Resolved the font issue. It's now set to Verdana as it should be on all browsers, not just IE.
2. Added a 5 pixel spacer to the left margin to get the left menus off the side of the page.
3. Changed the clock to it's own style setting - on some browsers it and the search bar were so large they were messing up the rendering at the top.
4. Changed the seperator to gray #666666. Noticable but not as audacious as #ffff99 yellow or #666600 yellow-green.

With that I think we're good to go.

Thanks. Actually, I switch between IE on Windows and NS on Linux. I'm on IE now, and the font has gone to Veranda, thank heavens. If only I could control the font size. 9pt is a bit small for my eyes.

I'll take a look with NS later.

New front page looks very professional. Good work!

One question ... the "3" icons in the background look familiar ... they aren't someone's IP, are they?

FWIW, I'm noticing some display anomalies with Safari 1.2 and IE 5.2.3 under MacOS X 10.3.2. Screenshots available below.

I like the grey stripe; change the other greeny-yellow lines, too!

It looks great, but the day grey rectangle does not have a separator, if it would have I think it would look better. Anyway, it looks marvelous other than that.

The 3 on the background was from Eric Noah's site, unless I am wrong, and I never quite liked it... but other than that I like this theme better than any other now, and am gonna stick with it.
