Spent way too much time fiddling this blog's style. Always a blend of frustrating and fun to work within the bounds of a fixed page, and hella mess it up with CSS. Notes:
- Do not care about word count.
- Didn't like the default giant mostly-empty 'above the fold' setup, so it's compacted. The collapsing header uses sticky positioning and three layers: header/menu, author info, and then the main page beneath.
- The bit of extra starting margin above the header is achieved by having the parent container be shifted upwards above the viewport.
- Original header image was way too big, and too nested to be usefully modified, so it's just gone. The new corner image is a ::before on the header, or on the homepage link for mobile.
- Colors are solarized, margins generally fiddled with to make it vaguely like my homepage. Actually, will probably modify the homepage a bit after this...
