Hello all, most probably you are coming from the css reboot or the standards reboot, actually the new design to me is more a realign than a redesign I needed more space badly for my featured work, linkroll, blogroll & cartoon quotes, I also wanted to let the text be light on dark background as I think it's more comfortable on the eyes, the new design also more semantically marked up than the old one.
This new design is formed from 3 columns only the middle is elastic the other two has fixed widths the left column is fixed so that the logo and the navigation be with you wherever you go.
Ofcourse I faced some CSS problems to reboot that maybe I will discuss them technically through the next days but one of the cool ones is when an image width is more than the width of the content division which you are reading now, because the old design width was fixed I used to set the image width equal to the content division width but now as it's elastic the image width could be bigger, so the solution is #content img { max-width: 100%; height: auto; } this let the image width as it is unless the width of the container is smaller it will resize the image with it, to see that check this post.
Maybe some of you are surprised by the cartoon quotes, people who know me closely know that I love cartoons a lot and spend long times watching Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks cartoons, I always express events maybe sometimes my feelings by cartoon quotes.
