This is easily one of the best looking blogs I have ever seen. What a great balance of simplicity and interest, and I just love the color scheme. Readers of IMX will likely enjoy the content at mezzoblue.

Yeah, Dave's a great designer and a great coder. You may have also noticed that he is the gardener behind the CSS Zen Gargen, which is a brilliant project.

I wouldn't say it's one of the best looking blogs I've ever seen, but yes, it is awfully purdy. I think the layout is a little too wide, and the layout always moves around when I load the site. Overall, very minor nags for a beautiful site.

Ah, the wonders of a 19" monitor set to obscenely high resolution! I didn't notice that the site was too wide. I've been trying to redo my site design for awhile and I had my wife take a look at a few of the sites on the CSS Zen Garden and she picked mezzoblue as one she really liked, and I have to agree with her.

Yeah, Dave is the man. Pity he has to be getting married right now so his insightful posts will slow down a bit...j/k. Oh well, I can only hope that one day someone will write about how (place adjective here) my blog is. Guess I should make it interesting first.

Yeah but this is done in Tables. If he did it in CSS and valid xHTML I would be impressed.

Jacob: Yeah but this is done in Tables. If he did it in CSS and valid xHTML I would be impressed.

Let's see, he created the Zen Garden and you are talking about not being impressed because he didn't do his blog in CSS layout? Gimme a break.

I used to have a blog site. I could never really figure out how to do it ... the design was not as nice as this.

I realised recently how much can be done with css, and I love it, as a artist who's just starting graphic/web design I've found it great, anyway nice blog BLOGGGG!!!

Comment posting has been turned off because I don't have enough time and will to deal with the constant comment spamming. I'm very sorry and will fix this sometime soon (soon = before 2004 ends).
