I have made some changes to the weblog. First. I ditched the icon link to the other rivinus.com. I added it to the links set. I also added links to some other sites. Some for me and a few for Marlene.
I then moved on to getting the categories section working. It was a good lesson in learning how Movabletype handles template tags.
Then I edited the picture of Marlene and I from the main website. I shrunk and combined both images in PhotoShop Elements. Then changed the links so it goes back to the "about us". I added the XML image to the syndication link. I rearranged the different modules so search is further down the page.
Lastly, I went into the style sheet and moved things around to get around the spanning problem. Previously,the entries would extend to 1024 pixels. It was ok, but meant that you had to scroll right to read anything. I have it running at 720 pixels which should fit most screens without resizing. There is still a problem with having to refresh if you resize your screen. I will probably end up changing the main index template to a more tabular format. Movabletype uses floating tables in their CSS and it's a bit of a chore. I am thinking that maybe we will use this as the front end for the other website data.
