Mark had
written in just after I made changes
in the look of the site and said that the red I was using for unvisited
links looked horrible.
Yes, it was rather garish but I wasn't sure what to use for colors. So
tonight (okay, this morning really) I played around with the color scheme a
bit (with the help of Spring) and I think I got a scheme that
isn't quite as bad. The unvisited links are still light enough that they
should be easy to see (even if the browser doesn't add the underlining like
my one reader reported) and the
color is a bit more subdued than the
BRIGHT RED
I was using for links (or rather, various shades of pure red) so Mark should
be pleased.
You should also notice that the sidebox to the left is a bit smaller than it
used to be—I bumped the font size down a bit to shrink the box up, to
better fit the space.
I'm really liking style sheets.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
