blog?

I noticed this after the move, but am just now remembering to mention it lol!
When I click on the blog link up top, it takes me to blog.car-seat.org but that page is the same as the forum front page.
Did we do away with the blog?

Ok, I tried to read a post in the blog (specifically, "Self proclaimed experts" by snowbird25ca). At the bottom it says "continue reading". When I click on that to finish reading the post, I do go to the right place. The only problem is that the sidebar on the left (that shows the poster's info, etc) covers up part of the blog post so that I can't read it. Is it just me... am I doing something wrong?

So far I haven't been able to reproduce this. Does it happen on all blog entries?

I just checked some other blog entries and, yes, it does. It's weird... the blog entry seems to adjust to the center of the page, and the bar on the left is a little too wide and covers up part of the text.

What is your monitor resolution? Is your browser window sized to fill up the whole screen or is it smaller?

It's sized to fill up the screen. The resolution is at 800x600 right now... I hate squinting and the black bars on the sides of the screen when the resolution is higher. I can see everything else on the site just fine...

So, no more thoughts???

I did find a work-around. If I make the page so it's not locked to fill up the entire screen (by hitting the middle button up there on the top right of Windows), then the stat bar on the left somehow goes all the way to the bottom of the page. Then it doesn't block the blog post anymore. If I maximize it to the entire screen again, the stat bar pops back up to where it was and blocks the post.

It's just really weird, but something I can live with since there's a work-around and it's the only part of the site that I've had any trouble with...

Out of curiousity, try the "Blue Breeze" skin from the style selector at the bottom of the page. Does that work?

Not really, but it probably narrows it down to your screen width setting. The Blue Breeze is a fixed width style and is a little different in that way than all the other styles.

Ok, well I'll just play around with it then. As long as I CAN read it somehow, I'm cool. Thanks for your help!
