I know I shouldn't and everyone's going to hate me for biting. But explain how 
we're shilling for Microsoft, bearing in mind we went to a large conference and 
would post the same if it had been Etech, FOWA, etc. :)

We wanted to share it with the community first...

http://welcomebackstage.com/

Its still in beta and there will be links which point to the old site. But its 
live and running. We are publishing to both places but that will change once we 
change the backstage.bbc.co.uk domain.

We decided to drop the dusty platform of Moveable type for many reasons but one 
of top reasons is that you can all now comment and ping on the blog entries 
like you do for the rest of the blogs on the planet.

Don't forget if you have any suggestions for improvements = 
http://ideas.welcomebackstage.com which will be tied more closely into the blog 
soon. Otherwise lets us know what you think in the list.

By the way thanks to everyone who emailed me to say they heard my question on 
stack overflow - http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail4044.html 
(question 7).

Cheers

However, the top bar - where it says use our stuff to build your stuff...
The menu overlaps. (This is in IE7.)

IE7 supports alpha chans, and I'm using 7 (but if you're using alpha channel
PNGs then they're not showing correctly on the site for some reason... Are
they 24-bit?)... They will work in 6, there's been lots written about the
hacks to make them work in 6 and 5.5 -

Also, there's a couple of bits you've missed...

feed:http://welcomebackstage.com/feed/; ? Never seen feed: prefixing an RSS
feed :P

And the top strapline is STILL overlapped by the dropdown menu. Also, if you
wipe your mouse cursor up and down the Prototype menu, it behaves peculiarly
(sometimes closes itself). Invisible div oddity?

Layout's fine in Firefox, Opera, Safari and Chrome. In IE7 the
slogan/logo and navigation are colliding (as previously mentioned). 

In Safari the 'Prototype' drop-down menu seems very iffy - disappears
more often than not. (I'm using version 3.2.1)

Cheers,

D.

 Ah not seen how it looks on IE7 or IE8 (take note Dave)

 I look forward to the Silverlight version.

More helpfully:

Cheers I think we're going to change the menu around because the menu is over 
looked too being just below the banner.
 
instead of I was also thinking of just using a Gif instead of a 8bit PNG, but 
I'll see what fits

Layout's fine in Firefox, Opera, Safari and Chrome. In IE7 the 
slogan/logo and navigation are colliding (as previously mentioned). 

In Safari the 'Prototype' drop-down menu seems very iffy - disappears 
more often than not. (I'm using version 3.2.1)

Cheers,

D.

Any more feedback on the beta BBC Backstage site? 

http://www.welcomebackstage.com

Don't forget you can now finally comment and ping the 
new site, even 
the RSS works as expected.




Oooo, purdy. Like that new logo! Wishing I'd thought of that (I 
had an idea down the same lines but it was horribly inferior).

However, the top bar - where it says use our stuff to build 
your stuff...
The menu overlaps. (This is in IE7.)


+1 kudos for stripping www from the URL! I HATE that bloody 
prefix.
