The irony is that for me using galeon, all the themes are perfectly readable *except* for 'standard' :) I do like the K theme though, my only commente would be the first story is hard to read due to the very bright (but nice) background. Maybe a bit of a shading on the bg of the story boxen like in the 'woman' theme. It's very nice though (and fast, no mozilla watermark problems on that one at all!)
Good job! :)

I love the fact that it (literally) takes me about 5 minutes to make a new look for the site. ;) Further themes are going to play around with the layout a bit... I should be able to radically change the appearance without having to touch the content.
Interestingly enough, I took the shaded background out of the Kirsten theme because it wreaks havoc on a laptop (or even 800x600) display. Essentially, the hack I have to do to make the semi-transparency involves using a 10x10 checkerboard gif -- one pixel white, the other pixel transparent.
This makes the fonts on the page appear blocky and pixellated. :P

ironicly the background image doesn't show up on ie 6.0 win98. it appears then disapears.

weird... works fine on IE6/Win2k...

well it ends up working after a reload. seems that when picking a new theam the page switches to the new CSS but overrites the background image. guess it is an IE bug in 98.
oh, and the "remember me" doesn't seem to want to remember me :)

How odd. I threw in an extra to clear up a separate problem... maybe that'll fix it?
