I really like the idea of author recommendations--that's how I've found some favorite stories on other archives.
The layout is very pretty, especially for individual authors' archives, but I'm a little disconcerted by the all-caps format of the stories themselves...it's stylish but it detracts from readability, especially in the longer stories.
All-caps!? what? in the story content itself? *boggled* Wait, do you mean the all-caps of the titles of the stories (in the suggested-part)? Uhm, if you mean the body of the story then I *really* broke something this afternoon! What browser are you using, and I'll fix it ASAP.
erm, I mean: if I know what browser you're using then I'll know whether it's a setting that throws an error (or is a tag unclosed or something) as opposed to the cause being some other issue.
Yep, the body text elements in the stories in the new layout are showing up as all caps, and the lead-in lines have squished vertical spacing...I'm viewing the site through Internet Explorer 7. (I flipped back to the old layout, and the fonts and vertical spacing look normal to me.
The new layout is shiny & gorgeous!! I only have one question. I may just be blind, but so far, I have totally not been able to figure out how to get past Chapter 1 on multi-chapter fics. Clicking on a story takes me to Chapter 1, but I don't see any way to navigate beyond that to Chapter 2+
just checking in (this is sol) -- ergh, I thought I fixed that. Which story are you talking about? It might be an issue just with that story, since I tried to straighten up as much as I could before ducking out for a week for RL stuff.
*goes to check*
Oh, crap. That is NOT supposed to be broken! My apologies. Don't know what happened, but I'm too exhausted to mess with code right now, and tomorrow it's family stuff until probably 10pm CST... I'm really sorry to make you wait until then, if I can't figure it out tonight. I'll try my best, but if I can't get it tonight, it will definitely be tomorrow night -- but all the same, thank you for letting me know!
Again, my apologies, I thought I had all ducks lined up for proper shooting before taking off for graduation week. *dies*
Oh! It's not a problem! I'm mostly just exploring right now, and that was something I noticed (and it was on all the multi-chaptered stories I checked).
Whenever you get it fixed! Not a rush! I just love that you do this archive at all!
