I'm still working on getting around the scrollbar

restructuring the entire style once again :( ... be

I believe that's because my Mozilla theme is not the
default but "Noia 2.0 (eXtreme)". It has a different
scrollbar styling.

I am not certain how to style scrollbar without
distributing it as a .xpi. As you can tell, the width
of the scrollbar changes depending on which theme
Mozilla is using, and that is why there are overlaps
on your screenshot but none on mine.

For the easiest way out, I guess I might just find a
better place to put that "pubdate". For now, I'll
reduce the width of the pubDate box by a few more
pixels. The css file on Geocities now should reflect
the change.

But if anyone knows how to style scrollbar with only
CSS in Mozilla, please drop me a line.

I prefer the "scattering" labels a little better. I
stare at the screen a lot. It helps when there's
something that cause me to rotate my eyes once in a
while. :)

Once the "pubdate" is moved to some other place, the
"cut off" shouldn't be a problem anymore.

No problem. I'll put that change in the next release.

There will be at least a couple more changes in the
upcoming release (once the scrollbar problem is gone
for good). 

These are the items on the list for now:
  - the annoying outline box for links (when clicked)
will be disabled
  - the header image will be changed from jpg to png

and of course there are the color change for
body:before and the location of pubDate.
