Well, it seems to work ok on Camino on the Mac (Camino uses the same engine as firefox, but makes use of more os/x features, which is nice). That wordpress thing looks cool, shame I have just done my own weblog thingumy from scratch. Bit corporate, though. Where is the subversive Chris I used to know?

I wasn’t trying to be more palaeontologically correct, I just like the word ‘diplodoci’…to be honest I’m not sure what species they belong to…

I think the neck/body/tail ratio is more suggestive of Apatosaurus (n�e Brontosaurus) than Diplodocus. But hey ho.

(Please feel free to quote the Python sketch concerning Miss Anne Elk’s theory about the brontosaurus at this point.)

I prefer the term ‘diplodoci’, myself.

You have brontosaurs.

This is good.

Everything should have more iconographic brontosaurs.

Oh, yeah, and the rest of it looks pretty great too. Nice clean layout, both innocent and playful without being jejune, and a delightful finish of autumn fruits and dusky oak barrel tones. But after all that fussing with the colour charts… where’s the lime green, pink and beige combination I was hoping for?
