I’m calling the present state of GFMorris.com’s layout Version 1.1. Added since you last viewed the site:

• Gravatars in comments. This isn’t a requirement; if you don’t have one, a silhouette shows up beside your posts. Since I require user registration, though, I thought this would be a nice little thing to do. You can sign up for a Gravatar at gravatar.com. I’ve tried to install Mark Jacquith’s Gravatar Signup Plugin, but, as Mark notes, you have to have cookies cleared for this to work. Yes, I’ve already made a suggestion for adding a Dashboard page to the plugin to present the form to users who’ve already registered on that Weblog; if you’re already logged in, you can’t see the signup form; if you’re logged out, you won’t be presented the signup form. It’s a hell of a catch-22!
• I upgraded just now to v1.5 of Mark’s Gravatar Signup, and that should put things right; you can ignore all the struck-out stuff above now. Thanks, Mark! If you’re a logged-in user and don’t see the “Sign up for a Gravatar!” text with a checkbox beside it, please let me know …
• Alternating comment background colors, with borders. I figured that it made the comments easier to follow as one was reading them. I should probably look into some PHP-fu to output some XHTML that I could style with CSS that recognizes when it’s me commenting and not you, and then have it present my comment with a different background color. [If that didn't make sense, just look at the pretty colors.]
• Comment numbering was removed. I like having comments in a numbered list, but I find that my readers can count, thankyouverymuch.
• Speaking of lists, they’re now better formatted in entries, too.

At some point, I’ll work even more on making this layout more theme-like, but I’ve already spent way too much of my Sunday mucking with this.

Update: We’re now to 1.1.1, with Comment Quicktags added and the comment entry area restyled a bit.
