Goodbye, little sheep.

The little sheep from my previous design.

If you’ve been here in the past, you might notice things look a little different than they did before. That’s because I just (like 5 minutes ago) launched the new design you’re currently looking at.

I’m still working through a few kinks—like trying to figure out what to do with posts that reference images I no longer have on Flickr—so if you notice anything broken, please let me know. I may very well already know about it but, if I don’t, I’ll appreciate the heads-up.

Also, I haven’t got around to testing in the various versions of IE yet, so things might be a little broken in those browsers. I hope to have IE6, 7 and 8 tested and any fixes in place before the weekend is over.

As always, please leave your feedback in the comments.

Please let me know if you run into any issues.

One of the projects I’ve been busy with at work is building a new theme for the company blog. I’m happy to announce that we officially launched the new theme late Monday afternoon. Here’s a preview:

Go check it out and let me know what you think.

P.S. – I didn’t design the theme, our art director did—I did the code.

As I mentioned in my last post, I was never completely happy with the previous design of this site. After going through a few iterations over the last few weeks, I came up with the design you’re looking at.

For those of you that care about the technical stuff, here are some details:

Headline Fonts

I was originally planning on using sIFR for the headline fonts, but while doing some research, I discovered Cufón. Cufón is an alternative to sIFR that doesn’t require Flash or any other browser plugins. You should see the headlines rendered in the Mizike font if you’re using any major browser.

Whaaaaa? Yeah, yeah, I know I just redesigned this site a month and a half ago, but I wasn’t ever really completely happy with it so I started working on the design you’re looking at about a week ago.

It’s late and I’m no longer thinking straight, so I’ll write another post with some details on how I’m doing certain things (hint: Cufón rocks my socks) tomorrow.
