White Site’s Overbite
In case you’re wondering, the background hasn’t failed to load, the site could not BE more white. And a little #993333. To be sure, this is the whitest it has ever been. You may notice I’m calling it Blanco in the stylesheet, which is only a tiny bit more descriptive than the brown version I rolled out last November and dubbed…SN IV.
Oh, but why the change?? Calm down you rabid fan base! I was mostly looking to elevate the level of fug around here, but I was also tired of looking at the brown/beige. That “design” wasn’t really intended to last longer than a few months and I wanted to move the bacon over, because it was time for something leaner. Mmm…fake pig. I also brought back a modified version of the logo, and went nuts with the Silk icons.
The body text is set in Lucida Grande, but you may see Arial if you don’t have that font installed. I’m not sure about the percentages on that for Windows users, but it’s a great font, and comes standard on the Mac. Fascinating sidenote: I type all of these entries up in Courier New. I don’t know why. The site should look like this to most visitors. IE6 users may see some overflow in the comments section, and I’m working on that, but it’s your fault, and you know why.
If anyone has upgraded to Shaun Inman’s full version Mint update and wants to send me their thoughts, I would appreciate it.
Until then, that’s all folks. Oink.
