Welcome to the all new PlasticRain
Posted by Adam Posted in This Site 3 comments
Well here it is… the brand new PlasticRain website and its here to stay (unlike many other of its ancestors).
The new website is powered by my own creation, RainMaker – a very small blog engine which does exactly what it says on the tin, allows me to post entries, accept comments and provide an RSS feed.
There are few things left to do, but as I just wanted to get the site launched, I’ve left them out for a day or two:
<title>attributes need setting to be relevent to the page currently being browsed- A few minor tiny browser compatability issues
- A few changes need to be made to the admin system to make it slightly more fun
The homepage blog preview needs formatting to ensure images and long links are truncated or resized as appropriate to fit the small space.
Full details about the new site can be found on the about and credits pages.
Enjoy!

So I have to say that I’m a fan. If you don’t mind, let me know when you publish it. I want one! Of course I’ll get your feed if I can find it.
You should check out nifty corners for those rounded edges. I hate using images, and nifty is much much easier. can even use it with prototype, and lightbox.

Thanks Travis – feed can be found under the RSS link at the top of the page. I’d don’t like using javascript for styling things, hence the images for the corners.
