DISQUS

Derek Shanahan | My Personal Blog: Blog Re-Design, Zero Coding

    Love the simplicity of the new look. Do not like that it's far too wide for my screen. I have a wide-screen thingy at work and even when I fully expand my browser window, I still have to scroll left to right. Minimize it to a smaller size and its far worse. Otherwise, a big thumbs up!

    No kidding...I'll have to test it out. I did know it was wider than normal,
    but we'll have to see if I can tweak it.

    The sizes of a couple things are kind of wonky, just thought I'd let you know! For example, the size of your header is about double the size of the main content area!

    What browser are you using? The header should resize with the
    constraints...I've heard this issue before with another blog though.

    That photo is my dream vacation, FYI. And the redesign looks nice - hard to be critique-y on my little netbook, but it looks good from here! I like the little tweety thing that follows me down the screen. Also? Thanks for all the linkage in the post to your resources - have a feeling they'll come in handy as I keep working to tweak mine.

    Okay, but what if I *like* code? Still recommended? I'm thinking this is a yes but just wanted to make sure. :)

    Highly. Thesis is a theme that's almost 90% internal - optimizing
    everything involved in managing content and workflow.

    I'm enjoying catching up with your posts and btw, I don't find the size wide. Rather neat design and interface :)
