So I decided to start working on that 3 column layout that I've always wanted.

Check it out here.

This site gave me the basic layout to work from, and I've been modifying it as I please to get it to look like what I currently have.  However, if I do make this template my new main one...  I won't be able to use any of the other stylesheets that I've acquired through MovableStyle.  Hm, oh well...  We'll see how it works out.  If it doesn't look to good I won't use it, but will, instead, stick with the current layout.

::pissed off:: I can't make a stylesheet (using the main one as a basis, the blue one, bar on the left, etc.) where there's two sidebars: one on the right, one on the left; without running into some sort of trouble.  With the bar on the right, when the window is smaller than 1024 pixels (horizontally) the right sidebar runs into the content area, even though the content area resizes itself!!  It's making me so mad!  I'd like to be able to stick everything BUT the links and calender in the right sidebar, have the content in the middle, and be happy!  Gr..  Maybe I should look towards another solution, give up, or just not go with that idea...  OR!  If you know what you're doing with CSS, then try it!  I'd show you what I have so far, but it's at school right now...

Damn you all.

I take it noone watches Futurama?  My past titles have all been from Futurama.  And noone caught on.

Bastards.

I've added some more stylesheets to the list.  Like I said, if you're not using FireBird/FireFox (or some other browser that's not IE and allows for alternate stylesheets), use it!  You can get FireFox at http://mozilla.org.  I suggest you do.  Or, if you want, get the full blown Mozilla package.  Personally, I just opt for FireFox and ThunderBird cause I don't need all the other stuff that comes with Mozilla.

I swear I'll make my own stlyesheet eventually.  Really.  I will.  Why don't you believe me?

Um, yea.  In English we had an impromtu essay today...  Normally I can get them done right at the bell, but I wasn't even done with my second body paragraph (4 paragraph essay) by the time the bell rang...  Both body paragraphs were huge...  The essay was supposed to be 3 hand-written pages, I got 2.15..ish...  Now I really DO wish the class periods were a full hour like Bemis...

Half days are fun...  We had an SO meeting today, from 10 till 12:15 (well, I left at 12:15 anyway).  Dyouji got his watch stuck in an iMac too.  It's a USB watch with 128mb on it.  He plugged it into one of the USB ports on the iMac, but it didn't recognize it.  So he was gonna try the second port, but it wouldn't come out.  By the time I left, however, he finally got it out, but it doesn't seem to be working properly anymore.  At least that's how I understand it.  Fun stuff indeed.

Um, yea..?  This has been quite a long post compared to some of my recent ones...  I remember, back in the summer of 2002 (when I first started this whole journal/blog thing, back when I used blogger even, back before urgn.com even!) I used to write HUGE posts on stuff.  HUGE I say!  And I did practically NOTHING (that I remember) that was even remotely interesting!  Oh well.  Man, I'm surprised I've kept this thing for this long...  It'll be 2 years this June (the 6th, have you bought my journal a birthday present yet?).  If you want to see all of my archives, blogger and all, they're all here.  Just check the side bar under the Archives heading. 

OK, now I think I'm done...  She's crossed my mind a couple of times during my day, and even during this post...  I just wish I had the courage to talk to her... 

NOTE: ALL STYLESHEETS EXCEPT Main AND Right WERE ACQUIRED FROM http://moveablestyle.com.

Having trouble getting alternate stylesheets to work properly...  If you use Firebird/Firefox (which you should be anyway, IE is shit), there will be this little crayon box icon in the bottom left corner of the browser.  Click it.  You'll see 5 options on my site:

I only got four comments, but they did help a little.  I got some advice from Jason before school today, he said to make that there was too much contrast between the text and the background, but the background was fine.  He suggested changing the text to a nice #e0e0e0, and it looks fine.  I didn't change it to white, because the links are white, but it still looks great.  I added a dotted underline to the links to distinguish (sp?) them from the body text (you can tell that their different colors without the underline, but it's easier this way.) I fixed the order of <div id="content"> and the &ltdiv class="blog"> tags, so their in the right places now, and this stylesheet will work with other templates based off of the main MovableType template (which I'd like to move away from for once, my current one is still slightly based off of it).  Well, I started this post yesterday at the end of Web Page, saved it, and never got to finishing it at home, so I'm finishing this up now, before class starts.  ::bell rings:: More like a tone though...
