design
Some stuff doesn’t work right but whatevs. I will fix it. Feel free to use this thread to mock, help, comment or what have you. I woke up to this email from Cornmeal.
The thumbs on the side like that are making some of the pictures go off to far to the right, covering the side bar there. If the pic was at the 540 max and had a thumb, it’s definitely doing that. I don’t know how long it’s been since you haven’t been doing thumbs, but I know that we have a pretty extensive backlog of stuff that does have them. Do you seriously want to go back through EVERYTHING and take the thumbs out or whatever? If you leave them like they are it’s going to look like we suck at the internet.
Among other problems
- Some of the widgets disappeared. Don’t know where they went.
- I have extra widget holes now – don’t know what to do with them.
- All the celeb links are gone.
- You smell.
- It looks pretty awesome overall.
So yeah, if you know anything about design or wordpress or whatever and feel like helping, I will have sex with you. Or find someone that you want to have sex with to have sex with you. Or just genuinely thank you. I guess. So now nobody wants to have sex with me? Well good. I was just kidding anyway.

I don’t know how many of you know this, but we’ve been working on redoing the site in the beautiful style of Art Deco for more than a year. By “working on” I mean trying to hire people and then getting more and more mad. But now it seems like we are getting closer cause it turns out Sangfroid is a good designer. And since he is already on the gallery non-payroll I’m sure it will work out great. I mean, we can dick with it for 11 months and it will still be done faster than the last time I tried it.
So to get us in the mood – I collected some sweet Art Deco Superhero Posters made by some very talented people. Usually I just take pictures without any regard to who made them. I even do that with people’s MRI’s (I swap them out with pics of clowns) but these things are so good I can’t help but link to the artists. Some are better than others, but they are all pretty bad ass. This new look is going to be great (when it is done in 2014). BE POSITIVE!
PS – I know it is pretty Batman heavy but I can’t help that. The other super heroes suck!
This doesn't have anything to do with anything. I can't waste time finding pictures for you!
So you may have noticed that we changed things. A lot. Like. Completely. Why? Well, this is our 5th year in business. Does it count as a business if all I do is spend money? Well, regardless, Vange and I have a lot of shit planned for you and one of them is the redesign. Sooooo, I need you to tell me what you like, don’t like. I’m going to be updating this thread with info so no repeats. Just tell me what you think.
- I know the menu bar is fucked up – if you can help me unfuck it, let me know.
- We made the template ourselves
- We are going for an Art Deco type thing and are sticking with it, so it will be changing.
- The palm trees are not gonna stay – that was a practice.
- I don’t know if any of the plugins work.
- The Reply/Quote comment plugin does not work – it’s coming out.
- I’m doing a custom font for the headline.
- I don’t like the tags in the header of the article.
- It does not work right without the lips. Gotta do something about that.
- Art Deco was hot in the 20′s. As was H.P. Lovecraft. So go read this story. Go Cthulhu!
So – feel free to give your opinions. And show your boobs. Thanks!
This is how we made the block quote. I don’t have a lot else to say in here. How about I tell you that one time my friend was really hung over and he took a shit that smelled so bad he puked in the bathroom sink at the same time.
Forgot to test the photo gallery thing. Remember Harper’s Island? Well after the jump you can see all of the characters. Also being tested in this sequence…the jump.
