Hunt For A New Template

Posted by: Chris in Uncategorized

Many thanks for all your comments & the time spent having a look - it’s very much appreciated.

The TestBlog is now on it’s third version which seems happier in IE - I haven’t had a chance to see if I can fiddle with it’s colours yet, but it looks nice initially.

As I’ve mentioned in the comments, my existing template will have to go, because it is not going to be compatible with all the new features of WP 2.1. I would like a 3 column layout, as I’m using one on Blog-Op, and I just think they look nicer. Still, I’m keeping an open mind.

I would also like to re-iterate my contempt for Microsoft for being unable to build a browser capable of rendering modern websites, constructed to international standards, properly. Their arrogance in ignoring this issue is truly amazing.

    Hooray! That’s settled then ;-)

    Better, but the theme needs changing and it still gives me an error message when I comment in IE.

    Rose ( Who did not get anything for her 100 comment mark. :( ) lol

    Rose, you wouldn’t believe how much time this is taking. Every time I find a gorgeous theme that looks great in Firefox, IE renders it unusable. What a POS….

    I like it. But Yeah the colors are kinda boring…

    Hi Erika, I’ve been working on the colours, try it now.

    Rose, the error message was due to the site thinking you were a spammer ;-) I think I’ve fixed it now, FWIW the comment had gone through anyway.
