Layout info: "Spot Color" theme WIP preview.

CSS:


Image info: Layout currently only uses small bullets that I made, everything else is just CSS.

I'd like suggestions on things to do with the navlinks? I'm not real happy with how they are now, since I have them at fixed width and at small resolutions (namely, 800x600), they'll overlap with the pagetitle text (Recent Entries/Reading/etc. on the right), and for navigation reasons I like keeping the pagetitle visible. Or does this seem like not a problem? Someone also suggested putting separators in between the menu items, but that would make the text even longer.

Also anything else you can think of in particular that might be a problem? Like if there are obvious ways to eliminate the bits of non-fluid code I still have. Still working on eliminating duplicate/messy code in the CSS, but hopefully this is a bit more readable than my first draft.

I'm using Firefox 3.5.3 and the whole layout is shifted far on the right, making a scrollbar appear. See the screenshot: http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/695/binaryirecententries092.png

I think it's caused by border-left: 300px solid transparent;.

Yes it looks ok now! Another problem I noticed is that the sidebar calendar is cut off. I can't see day 1, day 8, day 15 etc. I think it's also visible on the screenshot.

Still using the latest non-beta Firefox. :) I'm using Windows Vista Pro and a 1440px wide screen resolution.

If I use:

#secondary {
float: left;
width: 200px;
margin-left: -350px;
margin-top: -150px;
}

it looks fine.

If I had to make a guess, I would say it's because we're not using the same font and the same font size.

It's much better and it fixed other alignment issues too.

Other issues I noticed:
The right border of the the separation/space between entries is not really aligned with the same border on the entry box.
The navigation items (Recent Entrie, Archive, etc.) are not vertically aligned. The page title is, though.
On the Month page, the month selector/navigation element is half outside the month box and the previous and next entries are above and below it instead of on the left/on the right (unless it's on purpose?).

I'm sorry. It looks exactly the same.

Hi, double-checking have you submitted your CLA yet? http://wiki.dwscoalition.org/notes/CLA

Just looked through my records, and I can't seem to find yours on file. Let me know if I just missed it!

Oh! No, if you've already submitted a CLA previously, then that's perfect. (CLAs go to Denise; I'm just the middle man who wanders around double-checking stuff).

Does this still need testing? I just set this up on my journal.
