The next segment of AKMA’s redesign is up, in draft form. I haven’t tested it on IE5/Mac yet; looks more or less OK on IE5/Win and Opera/Win. I couldn’t resist a couple of little design tweaks (I’ll discuss them later), but for the most part I left the design alone. Let me know what doesn’t look right, AKMA, or what you yourself want to change from the original design.
The markup is pretty solidly what I like to see, so examine it (“view source” or “save as HTML” in your browser) and let me know what doesn’t make sense to you. You should find that by and large it’s simpler than what you’ve been doing; most of the complicated markup will end up residing in the template where it belongs, so you won’t even have to remember it’s there.
One thing I may have incorrectly bulldozed, however, is a differentiation among horizontal rules. Are mid-post rules in fact shorter than end-of-post rules? If so, I can allow for that, no problem; I just wasn’t sure if that was the intent.
The CSS is completely up in the air still. Let me know what you don’t like, and it will change.
