This is what the page should look like. Since upgrading, a lot of weird things have been happening, like CSS formats failing, text disappearing, images not showing up. All of it is, I am sure, my fault. But if I always did it wrong before and it worked, then I am slightly resentful when I continue to do it wrong, and it suddenly stops working.
For those (if anyone at all reads this) who are familiar with WordPress, the theme I am using is old, tweaked up the ying yang, and should be commended for having endured so well all the machete-like plastic surgery I’ve done on it. As soon as I get it to work flawlessly with WP 2.6, I will replace it with a new ‘up-to-date’ theme which will introduce a whole new set of vanishing elements and queer formatting.
There is no such thing as ‘well enough’, and if there was, it should never be left alone.
