Dolphin’s Dock Makeover! 5
It’s a new year and so I thought it was perhaps time for a new look here at Dolphin’s Dock. While readers of Where the Dolphin’s Play know I rather often redesigned that blog, this is the first redesign of Dolphin’s Dock (aside from the seasonal Halloween theme). A few things have changed functionality wise. The site navigation (with my blogroll, recent comments and archives) has been move to the bottom of the page to give me more elbow room for the posts. To keep the front page neat and tidy (and prevent the new positioned site navigation from getting lost too far down there), I added an expand/collapse button to each post on the front page, it’s AJAX powered so you won’t have to wait for a new page to load. If you’re reading this on the front page, now would be a good time to test it out on this very post
I’ve tested the site on FireFox, Safari, IE 6 & 7 with no problems. It should also display fine in browsers as old as IE5 though the AJAX won’t function so you’ll have to click through to view a post in it’s entirety. As always, let me know if you encounter any problem or have any feedback on the new look.

Cool look! Very simple but nice details. I like the dashed lines around the form fields. Fun!

Nice! I find this both more welcoming and more stylish than the old look.
