To: Bill Ulrich who wrote (22340 ) 4/28/2005 4:46:29 PM From: SI Bob Respond to of 32887 I'm taking a few minor liberties here and there. For example, I'll implement the white rules in the upper part of the homepage once I get them to not clobber the text below the ad on the right, which might just be a matter of doing that text as a graphic. I've also centered each of the ads in their own cells because it felt a little too "crowded" toward the center of the page. And there are other minor differences such as not using small graphics as separators. I've never been a fan of them because though the graphics themselves are small and load quickly, the html to implement them so numerously really does add up, to very little benefit. So we're losing some of the really subtle niceties. I've changed my page background color to #f0f0d7 (changeable for everyone on the Options screen) and it makes the current menu buttons even more "jarring". Less so once the menu is redone. Then I'll make that the default page background color, though everyone will still be able to override it at will. I want to give everyone a chance to get used to the new homepage and the relatively minor revisions to the top before completely redoing the top. Because it's pretty radically different. And I've learned that a really major set of changes, or really numerous changes all at once, will always meet with a lot of resistance. For anyone who hasn't looked yet, they should check out the new homepage. It's orders of magnitude better than the old one! Extremely well done, Bill!!! BTW, I don't know if you've encountered this before yourself, but no matter how you set IE to handle caching, changes to CSS files usually take several minutes to get reflected in your browser. That's been a major frustration. Making a change then having to wait several minutes before seeing the results.
