Right, I’ve finally pulled my finger out and applied a new veneer to this blog. I’ve been playing around with designs on my local server for weeks, but it’s still very much a work in progress; the to-do list still includes:
Set up a pro Flickr account and upload some photos (the nine thumbnails on the [...]
In case you’re wondering why things have gone quiet again, it’s because I’ve been working on the new look for the site on my local server. The layout and typography is pretty much done, but I’ve not quite decided on the colour scheme yet. A similar green to the previous look is a strong contender, [...]

Panic Goods has got a lovely little drag and drop shopping cart interface — I particularly like the puff of smoke when you drag an item out of the basket. Sadly it doesn’t work [...]
When it comes to laying out forms there’s a lot to be said for tables. However, it can be done using CSS, for example using the method outlined by Peter-Paul Koch at Quirksmode. Now I’ve just stumbled across Anthony Eggert’s way of laying out valid, accessible forms too – very impressive. The javascript to hide [...]
