Yes, there are still a few bugs that I need to iron out, I’ve changed my blogging software over to WordPress as it’s getting fairly decent reviews and also let’s me tinker with it’s source.
I’m pleased with the design, it uses the onion skin technique in order to achive the shadow either side of the white content section – also enabling me to add a fairly descreet gradient to the background either side.
Over the next few week’s I’ll be refining and refining, so expect to see subtle changes. I’m not sure how long this will take – hey it’s Christmas!

Looking good!! I look forward to seeing how it develops.
I’m sure that you told me you couldn’t come out to the pub because you had too much work to do …..

Very nice!
How did you do the calendar? Is it generated by a script ?

Carsten, the calendar is generated in php by wordpress, the blogging tool that I use.
I have modified it though, so instead of outputting text for each day of the month, it outputs a small graphic number.
It also changes the graphic to a yellow version if there are posts for that particular date.

I like the design. Great colors, good layout. Too bad about the diagonal lines though, I’ve still yet to see a good way to get them to line up with footers correctly without stretching the content column to the bottom of the viewport. As you can see on your design, the diagonals on the bottom don’t always line up with the footer background, although it’s hardly noticeable behind the opaque white. Still it’d be nice to find a workaround.
