Today I viewed Contact Sheet on a Mac. Oops. The experience was much like noticing that my zipper was down for the last two months—the site’s broken all over the friggin’ place.

Since the company I work for builds client software largely for Windows and Linux, I’d gotten out of the habit of checking my work on a Mac. I was long overdo in firing up the G4.

My half-baked idea of swapping out stylesheets to change themes was largely the root of the problem (although no doubt it was broken before). Using the different colored nav images as backgounds worked on paper, but not on all the current browsers. So I’ll have to hardcode the nav images and if I want to swap themes, write some scripty thing to do the html swapping, or just change directories or some other fancy wizardry. But it won’t be as easy as swapping one line of the CSS.

Which, since the bandwidth issue, I’ve decided to rotate themes on a weekly or monthly basis and take advantage of that CSS and GIF caching.

Updates soon, and enough talk about this site.
