Below is an email discussion I had with someone last week.

On my monitor at work (1280x1024) it looks fine as the calendar is within the floating left side margin area. However on my laptop the calendar does indeed float over the text of posts and make it harder to read, also the bottom of the floating bar is cut off a bit. My laptop is 1024x768 though I have the browser windows a little thinner than 1024. > Do you see it cleanly? See above I pointed this out to Andrew about three months ago, he did not seem to care much either way. I admit I tend to read most of it in feeds anyway, I generally only load the website up when I am referring to a post he made in one of my own. > Anyway, good to see the guys blogging their trip to USAnia. I wish them well. Indeed, though they still have not blogged a photo of an exotic US milk carton, bastards... See You Steve Of course what Andrew really needs right now is a bunch of idiot geeks applying pressure for him to waste time he probably does not have spare in order to fix something like this. And yes Mikal you can not really comment with out a black kettle situation arising, after all your entries tend to spread out over/under your google ads and other such annoying things. |
