I've made a few minor changes to the site style. If you see problems, please let me know. If you're using a Gecko-based browser there are a few additional tweaks that apply just for you and things _should_ look a little different than in other browsers.
Posted by asa at May 31, 2003 02:56 PMLovely design. Nice on the eyes.
Posted by: zlog on May 31, 2003 03:15 PMLooks goooooood. I've always loved the rounded corner look. It' smuch more organic than the far-too-common hard corners we've become accustomed to on the net...
Posted by: Grey Hodge on May 31, 2003 04:26 PMThere is an anchor tag at the end of each entry's title. You can mouseOver that and get a effect (in gecko). You probably didn't mean that.
Also, the B in Brad Choate (next entry) render's incorrectly until you mouseOver that entry. Reload the page to see it. I bet it's a gecko rendering problem though. MF 0.6 WinXP.
Posted by: Mike Goodspeed on May 31, 2003 05:37 PMI really don't like how the links gets underlined once you move the mouse over the entry...
But other than that, it looks great... In Gecko
Posted by: Tom Sommer on May 31, 2003 05:38 PMYou seem to like using Mozilla-only css elements like -moz-border-radius. You should know better than to code a site that doesn't validate! ;-)
Posted by: David Tenser on June 1, 2003 12:02 AMI like it other than the afore-mentioned 'B' rendering...your text hops up and down -- you can see it if you rapidly mouseover the 'maintain your product' and the 'style tweaks' entries.
The only other issue I have is that your highlighting gives the text LESS contrast. That's kinda the antithesis of highlighting, isn't it?

Posted by: Rand on June 1, 2003 01:27 PMYou're allowed to use proprietary CSS tags as long as they're prefixed by stuff like -moz. It won't validate, of course, but afaik they're allowed.
I don't like the links underlining when I hover over an entry. Whether it's broken html or not ... it can be done with .entry:hover a {} though that might be unsupported by non-gecko.
Posted by: alanjstr on June 1, 2003 02:36 PMignore that second paragraph. I thought someone was saying you had an unclosed anchor tag.
Posted by: alanjstr on June 1, 2003 02:41 PMAlthough I think it looks nice at first glance, I find myself not liking the fact that the links are not distinctive enough. On my Dell laptop, the words that are links are barely noticable from non-links, such that I have to move my mouse over each and every entry that I might be possibly interested in to see which words have links and which don't.
We appreciate all your efforts on Mozilla, Asa (and you too, David)!

Posted by: Marc Randolph on June 1, 2003 05:32 PMI posted this earlier, and I still see the problem...
Speaking of blog bugs, I have one that I think may be due to something here. When I come here, then afterwards, my navigation buttons (prev, next, stop, reload) in the orbit 3+1 theme disappear, and reappear sporadically. I'm not sure it's only with this site, but it seems to happen more here, and maybe only here. Still testing to try to characterize it. I'm using mozilla 1.3 on winNT 4.0. Orbit 3+1 theme v1.3 0.0.7.1. I have tried reinstalling both with no luck. Email me if you'd like to see a screen shot since I don't have your email address.
Posted by: Jeff Wilkinson on June 2, 2003 07:58 AMvery bad contrast when time/comments/talkback links are mousedover
Posted by: willll on June 2, 2003 02:49 PMIs it just me or is the background on the dates (May 31, 2003) like 3 pixels off to the left?
I think it happens after you scroll
Posted by: Tom Sommer on June 3, 2003 06:16 AMI find it kind of annoying to be required to move my mouse into the entry to see if there are any links in the entry. Why is it necessary to hide the fact that a link exists? Seems gee-whizzy to me, and not user-friendly.
