New Theme
I was talking to a friend of mine today, and she told me that she looked at this blog but there was only one article in it! Now, I know I haven’t posted much in a week or so, but there is certainly more than one blog entry in here. Turns out that the problem was IE.
I program on a Macintosh, and normally use Safari as my browser (I also use Firefox). IE isn’t even supported on the Mac anymore. But when I set up the blog, I tweaked the theme to make it more to my liking, and somehow I broke IE (more precisely, I broke the blog so it wouldn’t display properly in IE).
Luckily, I have Parallels so I can run Windows on my Macintosh, so I fired it up and tried to fix the blog so it would work on IE. After futzing around for a while, loading an entirely new and different theme started to look mighty attractive. It’s funny, considering all the computer education and experience I’ve had, you’d think getting something simple like WordPress to work on a couple of different lousy browsers would be a piece of cake. But no. Sigh.
So now the blog looks completely different.
CSS sucks.
