MiguelI read your blog on mobile. Not much change here…
Redesign: Version 1.0
After two evenings of playing around with CSS, HTML, PHP and other web related abbreviation, I hereby present to you the new design in its version 1.0 form. It’s a merged version of two themes by Theme Lab; Keep it Simple and Fresh Pick. Some things might change, though, like the contents of the sidebar and footer, font sizes, the header and stuff like that.
Am I pleased with the end result? Well, at least it’s something different than the old one. The navigation is better, the entry calendar is back (yay), and both the sidebar and the main section are wider than before. This gives me more room for images whenever I post that. The only bug I know of so far is the popup used by the NextGEN Gallery, but that’s not something I’ll bother with now. Also, I’ve only tested the design on the latest stable release of Opera, which is v10.10 at the time of writing.
If you see anything fishy going on or have any suggestions for improvements, please let me know.
Update: As Miguel points out in his comment, you won’t see any changes if you are visiting this site on a mobile phone. Mobile phones get pages modified by the excellent WPtouch plugin.

I was so focused on the desktop browser world that I totally forgot about mobile. Thanks for reminding me. There are no changes to the mobile version as it’s served by the WPtouch plugin.
Roar SelboIt also looks ok on Firefox 3.5.8. Cant see any obvious glitches.
The only thing i see that looks out of place is the separator line below the Submit button. Since there no control under it, the line looks misplaced.

Thanks for the info. Good point about the line below the Submit button, I took the liberty of removing it. The magic of CSS strikes again.

Thank you!
Roar SelboIt would never have looked this good without my invaluable design tips (see the third comment) :p
Definitely. It looked so bloated before I removed that line below the submit button.
