The menu bar doesn't render right for me.See? →[More:]
Firefox 1.0 on Linux.
i had the same problem. it has to do with how wide you set your window, just set it wider until they separate.
(i was wondering if everyone else was going full screen.)
hmm. i don't know how it works on Linux (on macosX) but i assumed it has to do with the CSS as it worked fine in every browser i tried except i had my firefox set on a thinner window.
meanwhile, has anyone read "the tipping point"? or "jonathan strange & mr. norrell"?
the menu bar and the date will overlap if i don't make the browser window wide enough, and the bar links don't always activate until i scroll over it just right.
so it is still unfixed? thought i read dogdy hadn't attended to linux yet
i just got it again because i had another ridiculously thick book to finish first (the crimson petal and the white, and i blame the gilmore girls for pushing me into it)
i have to choose between js & mr. n, kafka on the shore, lullaby, live and dead in indiana, candide and and old usagi yojimbo for my next dive into paper. It will probably be kafka as it is due back the soonest.
and yes, i did poop at the library but it wasn't satisfying.
Yes, it's the CSS. I knew about this possibility... but at the time (and I haven't gone back to tackle it again), I couldn't find a way around doing the thing that causes this if I wanted both bars to stretch 100% horizontally.
It happens if the window is too narrow or the text is increased too much. Let me have another whack at it today, and if I still can't figure it out, I will make a post and get some help from CSS-ers.
Strikingly painterly, oh yes. Not as much here as on the islands, where it will pierce your heart... but still just amazing on days like today without too much haze/humidity.
The site is loading okay for me. Yesterday it was a little slow at times for me.
emcee is okay, I think; the first one is nearly finished (I can stick you on that one if you want), and the second one has three more people to go, after the current player.
I can put you in just before the end; I want ico to do the last one, because she did the first one of the second set, which means she didn't get the chance to start with somebody else's strip.
Do you have to rush? Hm. Well, I'd love to be able to put one of these up before too long. How long do you think you'd need?
No, it's too much loading for one page; they will be two separate entities. If I get doohickie's piece today, and you can do yours tomorrow that would be gorgeous. Once I get his, I'll try to contact you to see how things are looking your end.
