No Worries
I've been trying to wait for something eventful or worthy to blog about, but since people yell at me if 'Suds sits on the porch and enjoys a brandy instead of yelling very loudly about things, I thought I'd make a quick one.
The super-duper new website is still in the works. Basically everything hard is done ("Float does what?" "Why is that DIV there?") and I just need to stop avoiding the boring shit of re-formatting the current entries and redoing all the damned previews. That's annoying, especially for things like the dock skin previews where I have to faff around changing them and shit. I also want to make a few tweaks to the preview templates before I start that, so that's holding it up a little too. I've still got my list of goodies and bits that I'm going to be working on. No worries.
Looks like I need to update MT's Spam protection, was a few pages worth. Also need to update/fix the other blogs on this MT installation (like my lemonpie's), 'cause they're throwing out errors when folks comment, huh.
Updated - Actually, I thought it might be cool to show how it's going to look, so you can click here to take a gander at test blog. I included this entry as well as some testing ones for comparison.
If anyone with a higher CSS power level than me can recommend changes, or can say if I've done something bloody stupid, I'd love to hear from you. Also if anyone knows how I can make the left and right column's text lines line up even after paragraph breaks, I'd be real grateful.

In terms of XHTML you probably want to use h1 (with the proper background image) for the website header, and h2 for the title of the articles. In addition, you could use descendant selectors to avoid adding unnecessary classes (i.e. the .bt for the parragraphs). Same for the right bar.
Looks good, btw :)

Beep beep beep I'm a tired pants. No lazies, do the boring stuff and make it all pretty! I don't mind if Sudsy has a brandy on the porch as long as he doesn't give any to Tinkers. We all know where that would go...

The new site looks very nice, RP.
No brandy for you. Evar. <>_<>

@pumpkin: I'll have to google what the hell a descendant selector is, but thanks for the input!
@Heather: Hot damn, brandy!
@Anthony: Geddof my lawn!
