A very non-sense post, but here’s the recent theme/css mod:

local

So basically, it’s the exact same, but I changed the structure so it fills the WS. Changes:

  • Left sidebar: hold in-blog links
  • Categories and Archives moved from the dropdown menu
  • Categories is becoming more fluid and less cluttery
  • Right sidebar: holds feeds and expands with the page
  • [future] relocate the Recommended blogroll to one of the sidebars

Anyway, the trick to all this wasn’t fun, because modifying present themes [that weren't built that way] is a no-no. Blah, *needs a drink*…. so, how did I do the flexible sidebar, with persistant columns? I won’t go into the specific adjustment, but here’s the general idea:

blah

A professional CSS wizard would probably know what this is called, I call it using up the whitespace of a single column, which emulates a larer number of columns.

My main reasoning for this is that the feed columns get rather tall, but when side-by-side they average out the page height. Though, not every screen likes a really wide page, so it is dependant on the browser window. And ya.
