Smoke Free: 232 Days. No particular occasion. I am not one to normally talk myself up without a humorous escape route, but, damn. If you knew me back when, like even less than a year ago.... wow. It was hard. It still is sometimes...but fuck yeah, yay me!!!!!

My new web styling is live. I am happy with how similar it looks in Firefox3, Safari3, Opera9, and (with a little cludging) even the Internet Explorer7. It was a little bit of work, but I tihnk these might be the best looking "buttons" I've ever done, even if they don't have a pressed state, I've wanted to use translucent .pngs for a long time.

The code-side is very modular, and the layout reflects it. I think it looks modern, and lets me plug and rearrange bits later. It should take seconds to add ca ool link and a few minutes for an interactive/informative panel. Hopefully, the design scales from mobile browsers, to widescreens at home. Feedback on that appreciated!

I think it looks mac-inspired to some degree, but not more than I can live with. I was going for something between Ikea's furniture and Wipeout. In the end, I toned down the techno elements to make it easier on the eyes.

Here it is in the latest versions of  four browsers (PC). Yay.

Speaking of which, I've got to say that if you use the web lightly, and usually use *whatever*, check out the Safari 3.1 browser- elegant and presents pages vividly. O' course, if you use the web heavily, I hope you've already updated to Firefox 3 (or Opera 9½, if that's your thing).

Opinions? Ideas? Bugs?

(Actually, I am neither working on the site, nor playing GW. But if I didn't have to sleep, I would be doing both. At the same time. Yeah.)

Excerpted from an email thread about my newborn son, for my personal recall.

C:
Its hard to communicate it in a myspace message, but the changes he is bringing on are profound. Not bad, but somewhat startling.

He is so calm sometimes when he sleeps on my stomach that I have to hold my breath until I see his chest move. That's creepy!

J:
That sounds incredible man, congratulations. Does it make you feel old, having a kid?

C:
No. Pain in the morning, the price of gas, getting called sir by a grown man, that makes me feel old. Kingsley lets me feel vital, like I've been given a job that actually means something - a challenge that could pay off for a change. It makes me think more about the future and what I can make it be for at least one person. It doesn't make me feel old one damn bit.

Ok, thats my first attempt to describe it, at least. Its still a bit more subtle than that. Theres a gravitas that isn't too uncomfortable. I think I'll blog this reply. :)
