Moonlight in a Martini

Trying out a new look here. For those of you not from Tacoma, my new olive skewer is from the Bridge of Glass in downtown Tacoma.

Now if I could just figure out how to get rid of that stupid white line through the middle of the glass! Even with that, though, I must say that Dreamweaver, Photoshop, and Blogger work together surprisingly well.

(If you can't see the new look to the site, hold down your Shift key and press Refresh on your browser.)

Feedback is appreciated! Even if you hate it.

Very nice, I like.

I know nothing about Blogger, but is there something in the CSS that specifies spacing between the header graphic and the rest of the doc? Or does the line show in Dreamweaver?

No line in Dreamweaver, just in the preview mode.

I know zip about CSS, what you see is a bastardized version of what I've been able to cobble together from blogger and help files. There probably is a rule I can establish but for the life of me I can't figure it out.

Thanks for the comment!

It looks like there's maybe a 1px border on your header, just from a quick look at your page source...

In the image for the olive2.jpg graphic get ride of the bit that says align="texttop" and you'll be in much better shape.

Fun design man. Cheers!

You can also tick the banner graphic right a pixel to make the olive graphic and it line up perfectly by adding style="padding-left: 1px;" to the <div class="olive"> tag so it would look instead like

<div class="olive" style="padding-left: 1px;">

Lemme know if you ever have any CSS questions. It's what I do. ;)

I'm not a Chihuly fan or a martini fan, so I can't say I like the new look in spite of its creativity.
