I’m home sick today, so I spent most of it in front of the com­puter push­ing out the new design . As you can see I’ve imple­mented most of it, but there’s still a few more (not as crit­i­cal) things that need to be done:

• Both the Pages and Blogroll head­ings need to be fid­dled with so the images actu­ally appear. I’m using Fahrner Image Replace­ment to load all but the header and search, but the PHP (that loads the Pages and Blogroll sec­tions) doesn’t agree with FIR for some reason.
• The right-hand menu, or side­bar, needs some padding added to the left hand side so the items aren’t push­ing against the margin.
• The side­bar on the main page needs to reach to the bot­tom of the page to link up with the footer. It’s work­ing fine in the Pages sec­tion, but that’s because they’re so short.
• Lit­tle things like block­quoted text and dot points need to be reworked to fit in with the design.
• Same with the com­ments sec­tion under each entry.
• Finally, the header and search but­ton images need to be posi­tioned properly.

On top of all that I’ll be rewrit­ing both the About and Things To Do Before I Die sections.
