\r\n1. The dots for the <ul> entries in the main pane (Linux, Rants, etc.) are overlapping the blue boxes on the left. If this was intentional, please be aware that it looks asinine.\r\n

Known problem. It's something I'd like to fix, but don't know how ATM.

\r\n 2. I like the color scheme.\r\n

Thanks.

\r\n3. The blue boxes extend waaaaayyyy past the bottom of the main pane. This looks very strange.\r\n

Few things going on there.

The callouts are bigger than they should be on account of content. Three of those (AOL, Viruses, Patents) are going to get smaller and/or become articles. Which should help the problem somewhat. OTOH, I plan to add more boxes...

I can tweak the bottom extent of the callouts by making them wider. I've played with that, and settled on 200 px for the moment, though I've bumped it as high as 240 in design. Very easy to change that with CSS ;-) The main content text will reflow around the callouts, which is handy.

I may add to the main content to stretch it out a bit. Mostly I was working on layout rather than content, but with an aim of making both easier to work with.

\r\n 4. Speaking of main pains, there's a pic of something off an E. E. Doc Smith chlorine planet up on the top right...\r\n

Starburst eyes. Chlorine planet. Erm....what color was that?

\r\n 5. There are no sheep.\r\n

And your bouroir shots are where? This is my tech/professional page. My lovelife is at http://ismysheephotornot.baa/

I've increased the indent on the navboxes (callout boxes). In Galeon, this seems to work. In Konq, I've still got the problem as the offset for bullets is quite large.
