Redesigning the Administrative Interface
Posted by awpti
I've been working on building a new Administrative interface for awpti.org, but it's not going very well. My limited skills with CSS and my terrible eye for design is making this a tedious, slow process. Right now, the administrative interface is a very ugly hack based on the front page of this site. It works for now, but it isn't very functional.
It's hard to find good tutorials that explain CSS in-depth. The concept of floats and relative/absolute positoning boggle me. I never know which to use and when. I detest messing with tables and will not do a table-based layout again! Hopefully, I'll have something to show in a few weeks - screenshots and whatnot.
I've also spent most of the day before work cleaning up the code and making it a hair more efficient. Haven't eeked much out of it, but there isn't much to eek out of it anyway - this site is very minimal.
Meh. Random thoughts for the day.
