Ask a silly question


icon"Ravenwood's Universe is a funny, well written, long running, consistently updated blog. So why hasn't it ever taken off? My theory? The page colors are the problem." -- John Hawkins, Right Wing News.

And here I thought it was because it's overweight and has stubby little penguin-like wings. Apparently it's a rods and cones problem. (go figure.)

You can change the colors using the style sheet selector on the left.

I "get" the color scheme. Ravenwood's UNIVERSE.....black. Like space.

Frankly, I think people are afraid of your stance on Chicken Safety

What do you think about an additional non-pastel style? But oddly, I never thought of the colors until I read that quote. You have the best libertarian blog I have encountered, so it doesn't matter a damn.

Black text on gray looks fine to me (at least that's what I get with automatically-load-images checked OFF). On the other hand I rarely read rightwingnews because it takes too long to load. Go figure that.

I NEVER read wesley pruden because there's some code in this that causes a semi-infinite and unkillable swap-space chase when I try. I have to come back a half hour later and see if the computer recovered so I can terminate the page. So I don't go near that place any longer. This seems to be a common piece of code, whatever it is. Screw them.

I think it's a FindObject call but am not sure.

I got a PC with 32mb of memory so it would have extra. Parkinson's law applied though.

I never noticed the style sheets. They don't seem to work for the comments section, though. (At least in Opera)

The guy's right. It even sucks when using the "author" mode in Opera, though it's readable.
