<p>Then I opened up my blog, and waited for a while for the IE 6 to load up my sidebar. After a while, I thought, it shouldn&#8217;t take this long to load the theme. Then I scrolled the screen down.</p>
<p>Shit, the sidebar had been pushed to the bottom!</p>
<p>Ah&#8230;.the CSS is not working very well with IE 6, and according to my mint, most of the readers are still using Internet Explorer (not sure which version though).</p>
<p>Now I have another problem to solve!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For some reasons, my photoblog based on <a href="http://www.pixelpost.org">pixelpost</a> won&#8217;t load the CSS on 55lounge.net, I have no clue.</p>
<p>Now I&#8217;ve moved the entire content (not much, only 4 photos) to niceric.com and park 55lounge.net at niceric.com.</p>
<p>Then another problem arise. If you key in www.niceric.com, yeah, the CSS loads fine but if you visit through 55lounge.net, it won&#8217;t load the stylesheet. AH&#8230;.</p>
<p>I will now working on the design offline, and load it whenever I got the chance to, it will be a long process.</p>
<p>A bit of update on myself.<br />
I&#8217;ve been chasing super hits <a href="http://www.fox.com/prisonbreak/">Prison Break</a> and <a href="http://www.fox.com/24/">24</a> lately when I suppose to do up my studio. My life now is basically surrounding the only furniture I have in the studio, which is the, errr, air inflated bed. I eat on it, sleep on eat, watch TV on it, read on it. I need to get something to sit and relax on. </p>
<p>The only reason I haven&#8217;t get the furniture in is because I still haven&#8217;t decided which sofa I want. The Klippan from Ikea seems good to me, cheap and comfy. I kind of like this colour, it matches my blog very well, but quite sure it match my studio. </p>
<p><center><img src="http://www.ikea.com/PIAimages/60016_PE165958_S4.jpg" alt="" /></center></p>
<p>But again, there are so many colours, textile and design to choose. Ahhh&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After many painful hours, my first theme is finally available for download. </p>
<p>It is a simple design but definitely not an easy job (read: for me) to do. It looks very much what you are seeing now, except you won&#8217;t get the flash on top ;).</p>
<p>I am planning to work harder on it, hopefully to list it on major wordpress theme websites for more people to download. I also hope in near future, I will design personalized wordpress theme on request, of course base on the main release theme, to generate some cash to pay off my bills.</p>
<p>Click on the &#8217;simplicity&#8217; button above to download.</p>
<p>Hope you&#8217;ll love it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After an hour of attempts, I&#8217;ve finally come out with this new design. The navigation and page layout basically remain the same, I only amended the &#8220;look&#8221;. Hope this is an improvement over the previous one. For those of you who interested in how my blog looks like before this, I&#8217;ve created a page for my <a href="http://niceric.com/blog/about/blog-history/" title="take a peep">blog history</a> for your convenience. </p>
<p>After the little complaint from <a href="http://scorpish.blogspot.com/" title="scorpy's blog">scorpy</a> in <a href="http://niceric.com/blog/guestbook" title="please sign the guestbook">my guestbook</a>, I also improve the <a href="http://niceric.com/blog/links">links page</a>, by introducing <a href="http://www.dustindiaz.com/sweet-titles" title="download sweet title here">sweet title script</a> to my blog. So what does this sweet title does? Basically it shows a beautifully design black box with link name and title as you hover on any link in my blog. I still have to re-adjust this sweet title to blend it nicely to my blog, please give me some time.</p>
<p>This is not the final design for my blog, but I am quite happy with this layout and will properly release for you to download, if you interested.</p>
<p><strong><br />
Update:</strong><br />
Thanks to all of you, Google sent me an email informing my PIN for adsense is on the way, which mean I am a step closer to collect money from them. Thank you.</p>

After few weeks of hard work studying CSS and CS2 manual, I&#8217;ve finally come out with my very own blog design. (applaud please~)</p>
<p>I wasn&#8217;t intended to use this theme yet, as it is still long way to completion. What happened was I accidently replaced the new stylesheet to this blog while I was testing it on my demo blog, silly me!</p>
<p>I am also working on re-design and re-structure my photoblog. (new <a href="http://photos.niceric.com">url</a>)</p>
<p>Anyway, I wish to receive your comments on my new design, whether you like it or not, please do let me know.</p>
<p>I also install a reflection script (a script that, er, reflect the image). If you are interested, visit <a href="http://cow.neondragon.net/index.php/383-Reflectionjs-Demo">Cow&#8217;s Blog</a>.</p>
