I've spent the last day or two working on the general look and feel of
this site. I've been trying to refine it a bit, as well as
working on the code underneath. I've moved the quote block to the
header. I think it's a more efficent use of space. I've
modified the article display page. I think it looks a lot better
now. I've also modified the display from the content
module. It always bugged me by putting too much space in the
article.
I got my hands on a bunch of new fonts recently. I've used two of them to redo the top logo. I can't decide if I like the change better or not. I've also played with the colors in the style sheet. I think that at least is an improvement. I've been working on the Meta tags as well. I modified the main ones, but I haven't gotten dynamic tags working yet. I'm still trying.
If you wonder why I put so much work into a personal site, it's because this site is a testing ground for new toys. In addtion, it works as as part of my website portfolio so I want it to look good. You've got to have good examples to make money doing it.
