Today’s random thought: I like the way our current blog theme (slightly customised K2) looks, but it is pretty flawed. Everything feels a bit constricted, I’m really not a fan of the whole AJAX Archives system since it loses your position if you navigate away from the page and come back again, and most importantly the thing is tiny. It’s like a tiny little island of content afloat in a massive wide sea of pinku, at least on my monitor (1920×1200). It was built for 800×600 minimum, but does anyone really use below 1024×768 nowadays? The width really frustrates me too, as it means that any images used in posts have to be really small and given that a lot of our content is vector artwork that’s an unfortunate compromise.
I’m also still not 100% sold on Wordpress, though to be honest I doubt that there’s anything better out there. There definitely doesn’t seem to be a decent gallery plugin for it that would be right for what I need (one ‘image’ with links to multiple variations, i.e. resolutions).
Comments and thoughts are appreciated.
EDIT: Embiggenment complete. I can have decent sized images now, yay.
