I should really finish first I suppose, but after fiddling with it for weeks, I realised that I’m never going to be happy with it so should just put it out and fix it up as I go along. So here it is, for you lucky few, think of it as the beta version. If you could contact me if you notice any problems browser wise (or just have some feedback on the design) that would be appreciated.

This is my first wrestle with Wordpress. The first 80% was suprisingly easy, the last 20% suprisingly hard, and there are a few technical issues I’m aware of. The user experience if you make a mistake submitting a comment (try it) is horrendous, as is the error handling in the comments form. The more links take you halfway down the page and the footer looks like the half baked afterthought it is although I suppose I can’t blame Wordpress for that. I’ll have to fix them up, but I’ve decided to post first, fix later. This is also my first grapple with Sifr, and although it is wonderful to be able to expand my choice of fonts it has a host of problems I didn’t anticipate (including no text resizing, unpredictable line-height behavior and odd rendering on screen resizing).
