New website design is launching! Behold the pretty!

So after months of hard work, discussion, and objections to my questionable belief that orange and green are always automatically complementary colors, my new website has launched! All credit to [livejournal.com profile] taraoshea for gorgeous graphic design, and to [livejournal.com profile] porpentine for skillful implementation. Take a look:

http://seananmcguire.com/index.php

You will note that most of the links don't work, and that the text in the 'Appearances' box is still completely out of date. We're working on that, and I'll be posting here as things go live. (We should get the disclaimer and appearances updates done today, and then Chris is going to work on swapping over the Songbook and setting up the first of the FAQ pages.) All shame for missing text should be directed towards me, as I've been terribly lax in actually turning it in before the site was ready to go live. I need to actually be able to see how it's going to look on the page. This is the danger of having a visual mind.

But isn't it pretty? I'm just as pleased as punch, and I'm only going to get happier as more sections of the site go live. Chris is even fixing it so I can update more parts of it myself, which means it'll get fussed with daily, just like everything else I can put on a to-do list.

Squee.

Life is good.

Dropdown should be fixed now on IE 7 -- see above for details, but looks like it was specific to the browser, nothing to do with security or the like.

As for the Safari iPhone browser doing something odd as well, that's a little distressing, especially since I've got no way to test fixes. If the IE 7 fix I just put in place doesn't fix this as well (we could be very lucky), I'll see if I can do some digging and find out what's going on, though without a test platform I can't make promises unfortunately.

It is resolved here, yes. It also seems to be working correctly on the iPhone/Safari combo.
