Kaboom?

3 Comments

So this is the end result after my sudden burst of inspiration during the New Year. Ouch, I don’t think I have ever paid *so much* attention to the CSS until now, after vigorously editing it for days ’til perfection, just looking at the codes now makes me twitchy.

You know, I think I am gonna get my Sims legacy stories up. I’ve decided to “copy” the background story from my (now abandoned) Bloomwood Legacy. I like how the story is quite original and provide a much more structural way to begin the legacies. Only difference is, the new legacy founder’s name will be something else, so are the screenshots – which the quality will be 10000x better; no more crappy graphics card for me! :P

Keep your eyes peeled!

Another New Layout

10 Comments

Yep, already. I know I didn’t have the last layout up for too long but due to special circumstances, I was forced inspired to make this layout. This layout was designed to encompass my Sims Legacy posts since I didn’t want to create a separate blog just for that (doubt anyone would see it anyway). I originally planned to have it 3-columned but by doing so, there would be less space for the posts – nobody would want to see a long entry stretched far and narrow would they? In the end the initial template was scrapped and I resorted to designing a 2-columns layout. The idea of this layout was gotten from one of my earlier designs (unfortunately that site was lost). I coded the old one using frames and the tabs actually flip to the other side when you click on a specific link; in my opinion it was much cooler though. : P

Well there are still some more tweaking here and there with this layout. I am still having trouble trying to fix the individual tag pages as they are not showing the correct tabs. The category view is fine. For example, if you are reading a Sims post, the tabs on the right will be orange, corresponding to related links. On the other hand, all other categories excluding the Sims posts will have green tabs.

Like I said this layout is still a bit incomplete. I have been working on it nonstop for the past 5 days and right now, I am in major need of a Sims break. Work shall resume tonight, hopefully? By the way the name of this layout is Tablet! I know isn’t it creative? /sarcastic.
