hi. yesterday, i stupidly commented on one of your latest noveltybox posts, asking whether you still reply to questions about old layouts. today, i discovered your faq page and got my answer.*
still, i thought this might be of interest to you: there is a problem with the showcase layout when viewed in ie: the navigation links are displayed as two lines, causing a tiny scrollbar on the side. the problem is in the original code, not caused by customization.
i figured out how to fix it on my own, by looking at the noveltybox stylesheet -- since the layouts are almost exactly the same. the issue can be nixed by replacing:
anyway, i thought i would let you know -- just in case you want to post this as a fix for others using that layout. if you decide not to, though, that's entirely your call. :)
i also want to say, again: thank you for all of your hard work; and on my part in particular, thank you for creating a layout that turned out to be so perfectly suited for me, when i couldn't find anything else fitting. so i hope this doesn't come off as me being pushy or ungrateful. please know that none of it is meant to criticize; on the contrary, i greatly appreciate everything you've done! <3
(i also apologize for the tl;dr.)
----------------------------------------------------------------- * just a suggestion: even though it's already in your profile, it might still help if you make a note at the bottom when you share a layout, referring people to the faq if they have questions. (i know, it was silly of me not to check the community profile right away... but i know i'm not the only one who's made that mistake).
it's up to you, of course. hope i'm not stepping on any toes by suggesting this.
