   A change is as good as a rest, Mark. Altern­at­ive style sheets would be a nice touch. 

   And I have been mean­ing to ask, how is Flow com­ing along? Really look­ing for­ward to giv­ing it a go.

   Pink was nice for a while, but I like the green more. Although I miss the dark bar at the top to cre­ate some con­trast. I some­how got used to it.

   I was about to you that your favicon was still pink, but it seems it’s just fire­fox hanging on to it. 

   It looks like ctrl+F5 doesn’t reload favicons. Ah, well I think I’ll stick to the pink one for now.

   Nice to see the old famil­iar site again. You should give blue a go ;)

   Owen and Stephen: Flow is tick­ing along.  Without giv­ing too much away, we’ve com­pleted most of the map­ping of the applic­a­tion and spec. Just get­ting in there and build­ing the thing now. 

   Don’t worry, Flow isn’t on the pile of ‘things to do’. Well, it is, but it’s unlikely to be forgotten!

   I agree with an earlier com­ment — the dark bar at the top did add a little con­trast to the site. 

   In terms of chan­ging your CSS often, I’m not sure how well this works, but maybe you could use a query string such as screen.css?v=01.11.06 or some­thing like that.  

   I’ve seen this done a lot, and means you can change your site’s col­ours without wor­ry­ing that people will need to force refresh everytime. 

   I won­der if the same is true for the favicon.ico issue too?

    I’m look­ing for­ward to Flow as well? 

    Nice to have you back in green ??it is more “Mark Boulton” than the pink ver­sion (doesn’t mean it didn’t look good as well).

    BTW Mark, the Flow web site seems to have been down for most of the day, at least.

    Richard: might be some­thing to do with Dream­host. A couple of sites I’ve got hos­ted with them have been really flakey today. 

    Or maybe Mark’s upload­ing a big dra­matic update!

    Checks site again

    Stu­pid Dreamhost.

    Hmm… they might be based in Cali­for­nia and not always get the accent when you chat on the phone, but I’ve stuck with (mt) Media Temple always, and I always will. 

    Espe­cially since the Grid Server just came out (it’s like a party on my web­sites and everyone’s invited)
