We know, we’re hideous. The latest update to the blog’s theme did strange things to its appearance. We’ll probably look like this for a while, so please bear with us. Everybody has bad-hair days. Or weeks…

looks like a theme problem? maybe if you have a theme file or stylesheet (.css file) in the new update you could replace it with one from a backup?
Probably. I’ll have to check some time when I’m not at work, but unfortunately I have classes and meetings for the next couple of nights.
Oops. I didn’t notice this thread. Well, beauty is only skin (screen?) deep.
Good grief, I thought I’d gone colorblind. Well, at least it’s just a glitch and not balrogs this time.
I had a handful of tabs open, and switched over to here and nearly died from shock.
I’m glad it’s only temporary. It’s not THAT bad, but it’s jarringly unfamiliar.
You’ve redecorated! I don’t like it.
(Sorry, couldn’t resist.)
It’s sort of a Goth-punk-grunge look. You’re not supposed to like it.
Though of course you’re perfectly free to “like” it.
Now I’m imagining Craig saying that to the Doctor…
Here’s a virtual pie for that wonderful comment, since the pie and squid buttons won’t work for me for some reason.
See if the pie/squid shows up after you refresh your screen.
That was the case for me until the new format happened, and now I can’t pie or squid at all–but about the same time, I started having some issues with my mouse, so it’s possible that it’s unrelated to the format.
It’s mostly working now (although I still have to reload, like I’ve had to for a while), so I’m pretty sure it was my mouse, not the format.
For some reason (that’s my catchphrase, isn’t it?) this all reminds me of that one episode of The Mary Tyler Moore show, where Rhoda redecorated Lou’s house. My reaction is the same.
I don’t even know if anyone on here had even heard of that show, much less gets the reference.
I’ve heard of that show! I’ve… never actually watched it, though.
Wow, that was a surprise. Almost reminds me of the backup MB/ Muse Academy/ whatever we’re calling it, the one we used for the blackouts.
My first thought on seeing this was “What the cake happened here?!”
My neural shimmerings exactly.
I may have to borrow that phrasing at some point in the future…
Things are looking up! I’ve found and installed an older version of our theme with Lady Bunniful’s lovingly worked-out color palette. Much better, don’t you think?
Now to rebuild the sidebar. I still don’t know why the comment excerpts aren’t appearing in “Recent Comments.” I’ve told them to, but so far they aren’t obeying me. They must comply or face my wrath. Maybe I’ll get that fixed tonight.
Ha! Got ’em!
Yay!
I’ll never update software again.
Horray for our GAPAS!
Thanks for fixing this!
It took me a remarkably long time to notice it was fixed. Probably still less than fifteen seconds, but less immediate than I’d expect.
(This entire experience felt strangely like my recent rearrangement of all my furniture.)
Same here. I’m just so used to this theme.
Thank you, GAPAs!
When I refreshed my ipod….last night? this mroning? I don’t remember….for the first time after it was fixed, it made me VERY happy.
You GAPAlings are wonderful.
Huzzah! Thank you, Robert!
I’m much more sad about the loss of the widget on the bottom of the sidebar where you can pilot a rocket ship around the page and shoot text posts.
*than I should be.
That’s easy to fix.
Any chance of getting the categories list back? No worries if it’s difficult and definitely no rush, holidays and all~
