Change is good. I like the new look greg. You’re doing an awesome job.

Thanks Adam. Looks like Kevin Rose is another fan of the mostly grey color scheme. I’m hoping the header looks navy blue to you too. So far, I’ve only heard from one person that sees the dreaded washed out grey.

I read about the comment quicktags on Adam Howell’s site. The Wordpress plugin came from Asymptomatic. I think it’s pretty nifty.

I like the changes Greg, reminds me of krose’s site. Change is always good, and yes WP 1.5 brought some major improvements and flexibilities into play.

What I want to know is, what are you using to add this lil formating bar in the comment area?

That seems like a sound policy, but if I had to get photos of Nicole approved for posting, I’d never have been able to post any photos of her.

It’s sort of like trying to schedule a debate with a Republican…ha.

Haha! That is a funny (and festive) picture. Everytime I get ready to put a picture of Alexis online, I wonder if I should check with her first. =) Maybe I should?

Damn, I thought you were banned from the Internet at work. I like that picture. It’s very festive.

Not related to site design, but that is a horrible picture.

Thanks guys.

Yeah, I realize that the web safe palette was created back when the standard was 256 colors, but there seems to be noticeable shade difference across various monitor/graphics card combos. My old monitor at work displayed #666 as a brownish color, no matter what I did.

Looks good man, love the little changes. Also, I’m seeing navy blue so I think you’re safe. Forget about using web-safe colors, especially since most people have monitors that support colors in the millions. :)
