And it’s on

I finally came around to taking this place off of maintenance mode. This is the first piece of proper code I’ve written since two or three years ago. I dare say, it won’t look as proper in IE61 as it does were you to view it in Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.

What makes this so neat, you ask? Well, the text shadow of course! There’s something about text shadow I realised whilst playing around with it: It does not look good against (or behind rather) serif fonts of any size.2 It looks plain bad. Due to this I decided to use Impact of all possible things. It’s actually a really decent font to use for headings and menu items etc.3 when you increase its letter spacing. It looks proper yummy with a dash of text shadow added to it as well.

As for this place, I’ve no idea what’s going to happen with it. I was reminded of that “one photo a day for a year” deal in the beginning of February and thought I was too late to then (or let alone now). I might do a similar March through March deal though. I’ve literally no idea.

I would suspect this place will take on a slight slant towards ‘World of Warcraft‘ and all that it might entail.

I see now I must attend to changing the sub/sup font. Looks bad at the moment.

  1. IE must die! It’s the bane of any website coder. [ ]
  2. I did not try it in every size. Let’s be realistic. [ ]
  3. For things with a larger size basically. [ ]
