Wallpaper For The Slow
by Chris on Oct.02, 2006, under Meta
Sorry, Dad, I looked at the sizes and decided that it wasn’t TOO bad to use this theme.
For faster loading, if anyone feels that this loads too slow, pick a wallpaper that’s tiled (from the row of squares on the top of the page, below the title) — as of this writing, there’s just one, a grey stripes sort of dealie.
Those load faster, and it should persist between visits. If it doesn’t, well, uhm…
This is an experiment, and I can go back to the other one later.
Update
Thanks to my lovely beta tester it’s clear that this theme does not work in Internet Explorer, that sack of crap browser still used in a few primitive corners of the net. Well, a few primitive corners that comprise 90% of all browser use.
So, no go. Back to the BlueMoonlight theme for now.

I’m fine with this… except that the background image isn’t quite wide enough. There’s a bit on each side that looks funny.

Well, thanks to my lovely beta tester, it looks like I’ll be heading back to the last one instead. Too bad, as this one is very pretty.
Simon: There’s a tiled wallpaper that will look good with your higher screen resolution. I hadn’t noticed, because I have a narrow browser window. No matter, mind you, because it’s getting switched off.
