Geeklog Forums

GeekLook.com is launched.
It has an experimental (CSS-based) Geeklog theme. Tell me what you think of it.

Looks good I like the css. Are you going to try to get the page to validate? Currenlty you only have about 7 errors. Also it looks like the theme changer is out of the right block on IE6

Nice theme, though the positioning of the theme changer block and some of the block titles are out of bounds on my Mac OS X box running IE 5.1.---L. Whitworth www.finiserv.com

Ditto. The Theme Changer block is out of bounds on both Mac and PC IE browsers... Otherwise looks good!

Well... I made theme tester block to stick out intentionally, but this clearly was not a good idea, since most people complained. So it is back within bounds. And could you please clarify, you said left block headers look funny on X-box? You see, each of them had 5px black line on the left. What for? I don't know. I thought it looked better. But the audience demands clean themes. OK, I'll clean up the "warm" theme and leave all these excesses out. Of course, to get back those shifts and black bars means only uncommenting two lines in "style.css" ;-) 1gor

See that it's fixed, though I just noticed something else. On IE 5.2.2 on Mac OS X 10.2.6, all the links in (probably) header.thtml are scrunched up against the left, with the search box in the middle, whereas on Safari it's evenly distributed / spaced out nicely. They look like:

contribute | web resources | past polls
| calendar | advanced search | site statistics
| mailing lists

Otherwise, it looks great and I like it a lot!

That search box doesn't align right on Mac is clearly a MS plot. I'll try to address this. Thanks for comments.
