Post-it to the forehead.
I only have a few seconds to dash by right now, so consider this your post-it to the forehead: I won’t be posting a real update until much later today because my computer flipped completely ‘tard last night and I had to reformat and reinstall, and I’m still getting this tarty little monster back up to speed. I’ll be back some time this afternoon, hopefully, ranting as usual.
…and getting caught up on the comments to the Delurk post since I was last online. Holy monkeys, you guys really came out of the woodwork, didn’t you? Um…hi.
Also, I am deeply embarrassed because I’m just now noticing that No Style breaks the 451 Press layout template in IE. You know why I’m just noticing that? Because I never use IE and absolutely loathe it, and on FireFox the images automatically resize to fit the template. I’m stuck on IE right now as I haven’t quite gotten to FireFox on my list of installs. I…er…better go fix that. Looks like my computer isn’t the only thing that’s brain dead around here. First rule of web design: always crosscheck your layouts in different browsers. Idiot, Adri.
…what? Stop looking at me like that. Yes, I’m still using tinyfont, to express my sheepish embarrassment. Um…look over there! At something not-me!
…or hey, if you’re feeling charitable: today’s my mother’s birthday. I confess I don’t remember how old she is today; 60…something. 61, I think? Anyway…my mother and I don’t always get along (translate: we’re often at each others’ throats) and she rarely reads this column, but be nice and wish her a happy birthday anyway.

Happy Birthday, Adri’s mom!
Oh, and I’ve never had problems viewing the site in IE. Looks the same in both IE and Firefox on my computer, and in Safari on my Mac. Or, did you fix it already …

Happy birthday Adrien’s mother.

Kujo: I’d fixed it by the time you’d posted this; before the images were displaying full-size in the posts, and causing the layout to break by pushing the navigation down below the last post on the page. It may have been my settings in IE, as I had auto-resize turned off, but there were probably others who saw it broken as well.

I figured, but it wasn’t something I noticed before. Still, I usually read the RSS feed instead of at the site, so all the images always appear full size and in-line, anyway, becuase the feed strips the HTML formatting.
