Yet another new design

Alright I know it is horrible but I really didn’t like the last design and there was a lot behind the scenes I wanted to change. I decided I would update the site again and resolve some of the issues I had with the code.

One thing I wanted to do was start converting the site over to html5. Really there isn’t much of a point at this juncture other than it is more semantic and simple to make the change.

For example historically I would code something like this for the header.

<div id="header" class="container_12 clearfix">
    <h1 class="grid_5">
        <a class="logo" href="#">Daniel Hardy</a>
    </h1>
    <div id="nav" class="grid_7">
        <ul class="navList right">
            <li><a href="#home">Home</a></li>
            <li><a href="#archives" >Archives</a></li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>

Site Change

Well, I said a while back that I would be changing the theme. Over the last several months I have struggled with creating a theme that I felt was good enough and fit my personal style. Today I have finally given up. This theme could be considerable better on multiple fronts and doesn’t fulfill the previous statements but I decided it was finally time to just post something. I am not sure how long it will stick around for but at least I got it up.

Let me know what you think of the new site

Let me know what you think of the new site. It still has a ways to go but I think it is certainly more entertaining that previous versions.

For those of you in IE6 or less please use a better browser ;) as it will significantly change the viewing experience.
