[Coda]

Like... If I'm going to overhaul the layout, I need to know what it's supposed to look like. Trisphee's visual styling is getting a bit retro and not in the good way. There are some design elements that are requirements (the teal color scheme, the logo, and the circular gem) but Trisphee definitely looks like a site from the late '00's. A mock-up of the three main pages (forum index, thread index, thread view) would give me enough material to work with.

When I built the current layout a few years back I was still worried about supporting older versions of Internet Explorer and Opera, which necessitated some compromises. That's no longer a concern of mine, as long as I make sure it degrades gracefully (and looking boxy and rectangular in unsupported browsers is fine with me as long as you can still use the site).
