Just thought i would let you know that there is a new “Social Network” type of thing set up by Chris Pirillo you can find it here: geeks.pirillo.com

My new site layout
Well as you can see i have recently changed the complete appearance of this website. I think that it was about time because everything kind of looked all over the place. This new theme (Wicketpixie) i have was created by Chris Pirillo and can be found here. This theme has everything in it, it allows all of my different accounts that i am signed up into to be all displayed on the one page, My Site!
When you get this theme it has all of Chris’s content in it such as live video’s and his Flickr and youtube account. It is a very easy process to change all this to your own content
I have just recently signed up to Flickr and you can see all my pictures here.
There is one problem that everyone was having with this theme when it came out and that was that it would not display properly on Internet Explorer 7, like come on it works perfectly on every other browser such as firefox and safari. Considering that this theme is FREE to everyone, what you get is unbelievable. This theme could just have easily been made for purchase only!
Back to the problem with IE7 the reason it is not displaying properly is because this theme is still in development. This theme has been released early so that people can get the feel of it and if they like it they can donate for the further development of it.
I have made some CSS up to help fix the problem of the appearance of this blog in IE7, this CSS will align the navigation and search bar at top back to where they should be, the code is as follows:
#nav {
float:left;
position:absolute;
left:0%;
top:224px;
}
#topbar {
float:left;
position:absolute;
left:0%;
}
#mid {
padding: 30px 0 0 0;
}
You can just paste the above CSS code into the IE7.css file in the CSS folder of wicketpixe or download this file and replace it with the original.
