Neither am I, but apparently browsercam thinks otherwise…

Re: Lumilux
Beautiful site and photograph. In IE6 on my monitor the footer is impossible to read (text too dark and small – didn’t even see any text there at first).

Re: Lumilux
Beautiful Hans. I was waiting all summer for lumilux to come… wow, you made it, congrats :)
I just compared display in Opera8 and IE 6 and they both look alike. Just one note: on the aboutpage the headlines in IE look huge… and i second flowmom´s -> footer is impossible to read (text too dark and small – didn’t even see any text there at first).
Once you have more fotos online, let me know. I like adding lumilux to the Photogallery colum on TXP Mag.
Great work!

Re: Lumilux
Thanks guys (and girls).
I really don’t want to make the footer text any larger, so I’ve made the text lighter.
The About page headlines have now been fixed at 15px, is IE obeying?

Nice stuff, but the feed could use a hack or two to give us a thumbnail… Oliver has one (and although its mostly speculation, doesn’t dean use a txp branch for his dogs?)

IE6 is.
Beautiful site, and I like your paragraph ‘About Commenting’ ;)

Still hard to read on my monitor in IE6. Actually, the darker text in the header is also hard for me to read, especially “near daily photography”.

Re: Lumilux
I like your site! Just looked at it on Safari v1.0.3 and noticed that the text divs on the “about” page are on top of eachother.. I don’t know what your style sheet looks like, but it might help to make sure they are relatively positione dor maybe put a <br clear=“all” /> beneath each text div ???
And… I was thrown off by the right to left navigation for the photos. Not sure if this bothers anyone else. A quick fix would be to switch the prev and next link code and use the opposite arrow images. Does that make sense?
Anyway, I like your site… simple design and nice photography!

I’ll try and fix that. There’s nothing wrong visually, correct? Just the code?

What you said makes sense, but I have no idea how anyone would think that way. Backwards is to the left, forwards is to the right. Just take a look at your DVD player’s remote.

Thank you.

Re: Lumilux
Very elegant design. But is there any reason not to extend the clickable area of the arrows right to the edge of the browser? It would mean reworking your CSS, but I think you could float the prev and next divs left, set the width of each to 50% (of the viewport), and then slap the image on top of the them with absolute positioning and a z-index to keep it on top of the links. Make sense?
Edit: positioning the actual arrow background images would be challenging, however.

Trust me, I’ve tried. It would require much time for me to fix this properly. For now, though, I can only set the clickable area at an absolute pixel value.

Precisely the problem.
