today is international "ugly blog" day.
I'm gonna be fucking around with the templates until I have to go to dinner tonight, since it's New Years and all the shops are closed. If you happen by and see something that works, lemme know. All I know for sure is that I want this pretty minimalist, but I like some of the toys syl came up with for hers.
update: bah, humbug. I'd forgotten what a pain in the ass this all is. Also, how incredibly lazy I can be.

Lemmee know if you want to see some of those templates on Syl's blog (well, with her permission). We hacked around a lot and she found some very cool tricks (some of which I stole). I think her blog came out looking fabulous.
I can't ficgure out why stylecatcher isn't working. The errors don't match the actual problem.

The thing I most liked about Syl's blog was the drop down menus (I just went looking for them, but they seem to have gone. Or, maybe I was on crack). I already just found Hiromi's stylesheet, which surprised me because I always assumed for some reason that she did that herself.

They're there but they were having a problem loading (slow blogrolling response or something).
They're way cool; there's a tutorial out there someplace for how to install them, it's a buncha java script.

Extraordinarily simple to do. Generates the code for you and everything, after you make certain choices. They also have a bunch of other tools that may or may not interest you if you go here.
Also, Mr. B, I owe you an email. It will get to you eventually, I promise. I've been kind of swamped. But wanted to say thanks very much for the one you sent. It meant a lot.
