Description

Designed for the Sandbox Designs Competition, this CSS design is an experiment in layout. There are two sidebars stacked vertically. The second sidebar stacks horizonally, visually making 2 sidebars out of 1.

    There’s a problem with category headings overriding category descriptions in FF.

    Beautiful, beautiful design! Definitely one of the most original WordPress styles I’ve come across.

    I’m using Firefox, and yeah, the first sidebar isn’t handled all too well. I don’t know if it’s because I’m currently using three levels of Pages so it creates quite the nested list for the Pages part of the sidebar or not.

    Either way, will definitely be keeping my eye on this one!

    you’re definately right, the first sidebar doesn’t work well with multiple levels of nested lists.
    after the judging’s done, i’ll reinvestigate the way the menu navigation and the primary sidebar work with pages. (right now i’m a little snowblind with the design).

    i need a little more information: which version? only 2.2.2 works out of the box. it’s a security upgrade, so make sure you’re up to date.

    if you’re up to date, please post the entire error message, so i know what i’m up against.
