New layout and other stuff sort of

I have a new layout and style, sort of. I stole the Minima Black scheme and adapted it to make it something just a bit different. I don't think it's any better, but I just can't stand having the same template as every other person who owns a blog.

Unfortunately the archive page is based on the old version of my blog, and it looks really terrible with the main page being a different style. So I will fix that this weekend I hope.

Also I need to update the rest of the site to use the same style. At some point in the future, I should also upgrade my version of Gallery and get the pictures to fall in line with the style.

It's times like these that I want to move to a complete content management system like Plone, so that I don't have to integrate a bunch of different pieces of technology(and style in this case).

I'm using libcurl for some stuff at work, it's a fine C library for doing HTTP retrievals, and it has bindings f or a variety of other languages in case you wanted to use it in PHP, Perl, Python or whatever your language of choice is.
