New Layout?

akincisor:
Maybe I'm the only one, but having the news post at the bottom is better, because sometimes it contains spoilers and having it on the side would distract me from the comic.

bicostp:
It's coming along pretty well! Here's some input if you want:

- News post at the bottom = :(
- Setting the sidebar width to 185 pixels lets you put a buffer to the left of the comic with next to no impact on the sidebar itself (at least in Firefox; more on that shortly).
- I don't know how the navigation font (Home, Archive, etc links) looks in OS X, but it looks like a fill-in font on Windows:



--- Quote from: The twitter page ---OKAY enough webbery for one day. time to start drawin'.
--- End quote ---

Time for some unsolicited fan-webbery, then?

Here's what I came up with after some tinkering:


Unfortunately, it screws up in IE 6. (The sidebar decided it wanted to go to the right side of the page, under the comic. All part of CSS's bizarre nature, I suppose. The original page on the server doesn't do this.) Opera, as usual, doesn't care what you throw at it and renders fine. I can't test on Konqueror or Safari.

EDIT: Fixed that, but the Twitter-reader-size placeholder image isn't centered in the sidebar area. Oh well, close enough. Why can't browser developers decide on one set way to render pages?!

EDIT 2: Crap this is just the old page with a new color scheme, isn't it?

Guys, Jeph is hiding the forums because he is ashamed of them.

I would be too.

Also, the new title bar seems very influenced by A Softer World.

He says when there are spoilers though, so I've never fallen into the trap (cos I read the post first)
It's just a bit too out of the way, plus when it's by the twitter, you can read both at once (seeing they're both newsposts in a way)

Also bicostp, awesome work. Just how I'd have done it
