   Such an attractive site, clean, crisp, beautiful on a Mac with anti-aliasing! I can’t stop staring at the layout, the smooth serif fonts…

   Have you intentionally designed for a minimum 1024×768 ?

   When viewing the size in a windowed browser, running this resolution, WXP, Firefox 1.0.6, horizontal scrolling is required to view content.

   I must say, I’m not a big fan of the forced fixed-width design. I think it overlooks a lot of basic web design principals. But, so be it—the redesign does look nice. A recent debate about this in another forum got me motivated to offern an alternative for those that want it. I made a bookmarklet to convert the article pages into a fluid-width layout for thos of us that prefer it:

   As I grow and learn (present tense always) ALAP has been and continues to be an inspiration to excellence.

   As an old teacher used to tell me, a real pro makes it look simple. Your new design has that awesome simplicity.

   However, I do feel that the fonts of comments are too small. I always read it enlarged.

   Is it me or the design?
