In lieu of working on my senior project, I gave numberless a new look, taking inspiration from Daring Fireball and (picnic, LIGHTNING). James tells me that John Gruber gets angry at people who steal his design, so let me emphasize that this site is inspired by his site, and is not necessarily copying its format. I admit I worry about such trivial things as angering Mr. Gruber, but I suppose it’s difficult to offend people when you have no readership. So I’m safe for now.
I’m still not 100% in love with the look. It’s less conventional, but still blog-like; the large logo is at times eye-catching, and at times an eyesore; the background color looks better on some screens than others; and the content looks pinched to me, compressed into the space between the sidebar and the main section, leaving the rest of the site seeming bare.
On the plus side, I managed to make a table-less page design that looks identical in IE, Firefox, and Safari. And on my first try, too! Regardless, I still might end up tweaking a few things, namely the color scheme and size of the header.
