New look journal!

[compilerbitch]

You are hereby invited to check out my new-look journal, user icon(s), etc.

All at the usual place, compilerbitch.

(Many thanks are due to mageboltrat, whose Industrial Nippon style got lightly hacked as the basis of this style!)

Now for some food...

I'll do a bit more style hacking tonight. The speed problem I think is because the style displays quite a lot of entries in one go. I should be able to drop this significantly, which should help, although this will always be a rather graphics-heavy style compared with the defaults.

Thanks for the spelling error -- its in the original BML code for the style, so I'll fix it tonight.

As for the 800x600 thing, I may be able to improve things a bit, but the original style seems to assume a fairly wide display, so this might actually be a bit tricky. I will try, however!

The problem comes from having 600 width pictures in your journal. when you add the right bar and the user icon onto that you end up with over 800 px.

The answer might be to move the sidebar to the top of the page but that would involve removing the code from Page::Lay_navbar() function and putting it back into Page::lay_titlebar() after reorganising it, it would be a fairly major hack but do able.

Nah, I like it the way it is. If the occasional over-wide content gets scroll bars, so be it. :)

Yeah, you're right. Reducing the border helped too. I think we're OK now.
