As you may or may not know, this site is powered by the Wordpress engine. I used the K2 theme as a starting point for it’s ajax comments and live search code (neither of which seem to be working as of this post..). The feel that I was going for is sterile (stark white background) and organic (the heart) because the nature of the site’s name. It is still a work in progress, but so far I am happy with the results. I know it looks horrible in IE, but thats the Microsofts damn fault for making a shitty non-standards compliant POS of a browser.

The crown achievement of the site is the rollover heart menu at the top. It’s done in CSS, which turned out to be a pain to get working (still doesn’t in IE, see above comments). I may retool it with the sprite graphic technique thats descrbed on A List Apart, which may resolve some compatibility issues on top of being just a cool technique in general.
