Hello Andrew, Don't go crazy... the CSS is just that - CSS. Uncomment, throw it away, etc. It just supplies layout information. Get the QuickJava plugin on FF and turn off CSS and see what a site looks like! - quite naked, but everything will work.
I know how it is, one chooses a site solution based on some nicely canned CSS so people like you and I can twiddle with a few things and make it "look" like we invented it. I did that with the CSS and the current Rayservers site www.rayservers.com is the result. I never figured out the CSS height thing as I'm used to boxy tables, some blog posts are broken as a result, but its not too bad. Google Chrome or Opera's CSS inspector is a must have tool to figure out what is doing what in CSS. You need a good CSS designer... see www.oddsknockout.com for what TLC from a CSS designer can do to weblocks output. A release of the CMS we wrote on top of weblocks needs to be done, but its not a high priority yet as it needs to be finished and packaged. If you want a tar ball of the current site, write me a PGP email to support at rayservers.com. PGP key 0x079CCE10 on http://keyserver.rayservers.com/ or www.rayservers.com/keys. Cheers, ---Venkat.
