k2 – Climb to the Stars

General Suckiness [en]

[fr] Pour une raison ou pour une autre, mon site à décidé de perdre sa feuille de style. C'est bien dans la ligne de ces deux dernières journées foireuses. Suggestions bienvenues.

So, yesterday I spend four hours on British trains to get from Luton to Sydenham Hill. Today I [try to live-blog a conference](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2007/10/03/short-fowa-complaint/) which only provides power strips at the back of the conference rooms, and offers wifi which is just about as stable as my cellphone connection (understand: mostly useless).

It’s only logical that my website should decide to stop displaying correctly, without me doing anything obvious to it.

If anybody has an idea, let me know. And please forgive us while we look a bit naked. Probably won’t have time to fix this right away.

K2 Styles and Mods [en]

[fr] J'ai besoin d'un joli design pour la nouvelle version de mon site professionnel. (J'en avais marre qu'il soit tellement "pas à jour" que j'ai pris le taureau par les cornes.) Idéalement, je voudrais un style K2 ou Sandbox. Motivé?

I got fed up with [my professional site](http://stephanie-booth.com) being so out-of-date, so I [archived the 2006 version](http://2006.stephanie-booth.com) and threw together a few new pages with WordPress.

I need a design. I’d like to use [Sandbox](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/09/09/the-hatomisation-of-ctts/) or [K2](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/09/09/k2/) as a base, so that everything is nice and [microformatty](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/09/09/using-hatom/). I’ve had a look at K2 styles, but haven’t yet found a nice browsable directory of them.

In addition to that, my pro site isn’t a blog — I’m just using wordpress because it’s a nice way to manage the static pages and the design. I’d like to add a [big footer, Hemingway-style](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/10/13/large-footer-lust/) — has anybody done a mod of K2 with a sidebar **and** a large footer?

I’m also totally open to suggestions regarding the design of the new site. I don’t have any strong desires apart for pink, of course. If you’re motivated to create a style or mod for me, I’d be willing to part with some cash or buy stuff of a wishlist.

K2 [en]

[fr] Essai d'habillage. K2 semble aussi être un bon point de départ, peut-être nécessitant moins de travail que Sandbox.

[Chris](http://factoryjoe.com/blog/) suggested that [I check out K2](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/09/09/using-hatom/#comment-125799), which has been [hAtomised](http://getk2.com/2006/08/k2-plays-in-sandbox/). I have to say I like it! There might be less work starting from K2 than [from Sandbox](http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2006/09/09/the-hatomisation-of-ctts/). The only grudge I might have against K2 for the moment is that [they prefer UTW](http://getk2.com/about/) to my [Bunny Tags](http://dev.wp-plugins.org/wiki/BunnysTechnoratiTags). (Means I don’t have a lot else to complain about.)

Modifying the template for Bunny Tags and Basic Bilingual was quickly done. I quite like this Star Wars design, even though it’s not pink! Here’s a screenshot, because I guess it won’t last long…
