New look for the blog
It has been just over a year since I started working on this blog so it is way past due a facelift. Here it is! Some work has gone into just using a custom.css from the current UW home page CSS. This work resulted in a fix for that centering issue people had with the left margin.
Why the right nav?
The point of this design is to demonstrate a content heavy site where the most recent article is the most important, the rest of the stuff in this site is an archive. This is a bit different than a traditional web page. People are not expected to navigate through, they likely get all they want from the one page.
Does it use the same code as the CLF?
Yes it does. I had to do little modification to get the presentation like so. The one major change is the ‘primarynavarea’ being an inline list instead of a column… which lets face it, that would have been a waste of space.
Work in progress
Without experimentation there is no progress. I will continue to refine these pages (I had a few sections to add but ended up fighting with textpattern instead) and clean up the CSS. I hope you all agree the end result is a decent web page.
