A new look

May 5th, 2008 by Dave

If you don’t see something really different from the old look, bash the F5 key repeatedly. Or just click on the “browser refresh” icon.

I haven’t tested the new look in Netscape, IE, or Safari, so if you are using one of those and see something totally goofy, drop me a line.

It will be a few days before I have everything in the old theme loaded into the new theme. Until then, if you need your casino carpet fix and can’t find it through Google, use this gallery link.

I’ll also be updating the writing page substantially, and expanding it into several pages.

More news: I’ve decided to return to comments, and my new configuration might actually support them, so if you are a regular reader and would like to take a minute or two, please register and comment.

Thanks a million, and keep checking back as I improve the site.
