does my journal look right?
By that I mean are my posts surrounded by a rounded crimson border?

Are they readable? In short, does my journal look the way I intend it to?

Thanks!

1. Crimson border: check. Readable: check.
You've gotta be NanceGreggs to imspire readership though. Don't let it bother you.

4. well not everyone can be Nance!
Or even Will Pitt. :D

By any chance, does "crim son" have anything to do with the Crimson Tide, or Harvard?

3. thanks Peggy!
You're so sweet!

It took me forever to figure out how to get the rounded border effect. (I hear it will be much easier when CSS 3.0 is adopted by all the browsers.)

I still see some artifacts between random posts. I'm not sure what is causing that. Maybe I'll figure it out one day.

Thanks for the report dear lady!

17. thanks!
It's kind of a hack really. That's the main reason that I was asking if it looked right.

There's going to be a lot of cool new stuff in CSS whenever the browsers catch up with standards.

16. get rid of that frog and we can talk :)
Not really. I actually like the frog, but he is scary. I must work to overcome my fears.

I'm actually quite a fan of Southern Mississippi. During 'Bama's coaching search, I openly lusted after Jeff Bower, but was soundly disabused of that notion. I was told that he is a Southern Miss man through and through, and to get my mitts off him.

BTW, my crimson is the "official" UA crimson: #b10021. So there. ;)

21. Indeed, he bleeds black and gold...
He'll retire at Southern if he wants to.

:D

(And the frog stays. :P )

15. I wish I knew how to do all of that...
I tried tweaking mine and for some reason my text will not turn white. I gave up a long time ago, but hey, yours is rocking.

I'm not sure what you mean about your text will not turn white, but I'll try to help if you want. I'm really a noob when it comes to this stuff, but it's kind of fun to play around with.

22. I would get frustrated as hell with technical stuff.
All of that language is gibberish to me. I actually would need a visual representation of what it is supposed to do.

23. I took down the basketball schedule today
I really thought we had a chance to make the final four this year, and we didn't even make the tournament. Embarassing!
