Ok, so I've gone ahead and changed over the layout. Yay!! :) I think it looks good if you ask me. Looks good in FireFox that is ... I checked other browsers and it's legible in IE but not as pretty. The font still looks wacked out, I don't know why! I'll see about that later. It looks good in Opera and Mozilla and even AOL browsers. The blog's scroll bar is moved in and cuts off a little ways up on some of the other browsers tho. I think that's because the absolute positioning just doesn't work out entirely the same in every browser. But I can't move things around too much without it screwing up in one or the other so I figure it's good for now. You can read it in all of them (except IE where you have to stare at the weird smushed font) and having the box a little smaller is something I can deal with. I still haven't checked how it looks on the Mac yet. That's for later too. I'd say it looks best in FireFox, then Mozilla, either Opera or AOL next, and IE bringing up the rear.
Whew! Go me!! :)
