New look
To state the obvious, this blog looks a bit different today than it did last week. It was redesigned as part of a broader redesign of the Council’s web page — and the webpage of the Center for Geoeconomic Studies. Most of the early kinks have been ironed out I hope — but if anything seems off, let me know.
Café con leche, anyone?
Looks fine, Mr. Setser. The main text body part looks a bit thinner. Hope it can carry your charts.
Nice, but where is the print link page?
mark — i am a bit worried about the “thinness” of the main column. hope to get it changed — but no guarantees.
DR — I never used the print link function. where was it and what did it do (if it let you print the post, wow — i didn’t realize that was possible). a bit more please.
I’m sure you’re aware, but the charts aren’t displaying properly with the new narrower main column.
on a backward looking basis, they will need to write code to reduce the size of the graphs (or I need to shrink them manually); on a forward looking basis, i will be doing smaller graphs until the width of the main column increases.
It fills about only 2/3 of my screen. The banner at the top is very dull. Brown???
It’s not very interesting or attractive sorry.
Mind you I do use Mozzila perhaps its optomized for IE.
Brown is the new blue — or at least it is the new color of the CFR’s webpage. That isn’t gonna change. There is a bit more scope (I hope) to make better use of the page.
Drab. And too narrow.
I agree with dyork. Any chance we could convert the header to real burled mahogany instead of these lifeless pixels? You guys have the budget for it.

Brad,
I believe the print function was in the mid-upper right hand corner. It was a small text link. I would use the print link to format the posts into a pdf so I could read them on my laptop while commuting home from work.
Here are a couple of samples of past posts that I saved:

Brad,
Did you get my post about the print function? Looks like it got deleted.
I would like a print function in the new blog if possible.
