Ask MeCha: Website shakedown cruise Can I trouble any bunnies with a few spare minutes to have a poke around my about-to-debut Kyotown kyoto community website before I unleash it on the local yokels?[More:]I would especially like if you could register and see if that works on whatever browser you use, and try posting test items/commenting/sending instant messages. I'll be sure to delete your posts/accounts before I announce it.

Im interested in first impressions of colors? (It's supposed to look mossy green, but maybe it looks like Army green or something. I can't tell anymore.)
It didn't seem to take my registration the first time (though no error was reported). It's strange how when you provide invalid login parameters, you get no error. But after I got in, everything seemed to work.

I like the colors, mossy is an accurate description. The rounded blocks look a little 'nuke'-like for my taste.

I would say the green looks like a mossy emerald.

In an unrelated FYI: Skype has free calls between the US and Japan this weekend.

Looks great, except the font color on the italicized text next to the alien image is too close to the background and is thus unreadable on my monitor.

Natsukashii, yo....

Now that I drill a little further I find that Tetsuo styled the text that way on purpose (is he nuts?).

The color and underlining was custom styled by tetsuo.

Thanks everyone for your help. Now I just need to get Taz to make me a cool but simple logo for the header and business cards.

Is there a way to limit the color selections of users?

Bloglines seems happy with the RSS2 feed.

The colours are very different on my notebook screen (Dell latitude 15") to the CRT screen I use as a second monitor (also Dell, but an older 19"). The notebook screen looks a lot less green, but I love the look either way.

The registration process seems simple enough, although I hate that whole having to type my e-mail address twice thing. I must admit that the form rejected me because I had mistyped the address in one box, though ;-/ It might be nice if the confirmation process returned you back to the same window to log-in rather than opening a new one (no biggie).

Me like. Well done.
