Thanks! I have to give my boss some credit. He designed the original site (although I layed that one out too)... I just turned it into a wordpress blogd11wtq wrote:Nice... I love how clean it looks. I have to say that I'm always really impressed with your work... you're worth a lot
Holy crap... I wonder what is causing that??d11wtq wrote:Now for something for you to fix Your sidebar is bollzed-up in Safari...
I totally agree. I'm waiting to do all the typography type stuff until I get to work. The blog is borrowing the css file from the site (as well as using its own) and I do not like how I set up the typography on the original site.matthijs wrote:I would increase the text size and contrast a bit (or a lot). I know the light grey, small text looks nice combined with the bright green headers, but it's very hard to read.
Nice catch, take a look now. I like it better.matthijs wrote:A second thing you could try is "group" the blog items some more. So give them a bit more margin between posts while at the same time decreasing the "internal" margins. As it is now, it all flows a bit into each other.
Another good callmatthijs wrote:Last, I wouldn't make the metadata (date below headers) smaller then the other text. Maybe only give it a lighter color (while darkening the main text, see point one).
That, like the typography, is inherited from the original site. That should be fixed on both the orig site as well as the blog tomorrow.thiscatis wrote:Nice! I like the colours,
Only thing, the gradient quality (bg) looks very poor here, I'm on a 1920 * 1080 resolution, 32bit.
