10 This theme was originally developed for CivicSpace to match
13 v0.8.1 adds the ability to have a 1, 2 or 3 column layout. However,
14 I don't know how to achieve a one-column layout at this time with
15 Drupal... but if you need it, it's there!
17 I'm also implementing an attempted fix at column overlap by tables
18 and images with a javascript solution. Not sure if it'll be ready
19 in time for "print". In fact, well, nope, it's definitely not ready,
20 but it's in the scripts folder if you want to try your own hand at it!
22 I've gutted all the unnecessary styles I could find and pushed all
23 the typographic styles into basic.css. This is a new technique that
24 I'm developing. It might seem annoying at first, but really makes it
25 *much* easier to find those annoying font styles usually buried deep
28 All images are now PNGs instead of a mix of GIFs and PNGs. The
29 interesting issue is that, at least in Safari, colors in an image
30 in Photoshop turn up differently in a web browser next to their hex-
31 adecimal equivalent. This of course is a problem when dealing with
32 transparent elements, like the old slogan/search. But since I
33 abandoned those styles, the problem no longer needs to be fixed!
35 I also have hopefully converted completely to UNIX line endings.
41 At lower resolutions, IE and Firefox do weird things with the content.
42 In three column-mode, IE will drop the content in a waterfall; Firefox
43 will overlap the columns. I tried a number of things but nothing fixed
44 the problem as of 0.8.0.3.
51 * More custom HTML output.
52 x -Fix poll content dropping in IE
