Thanks for your comment.
It’s not even close to Windows task bar (I hope)
Actually my first theme was like you described.
I’ll check more and more themes…but the old one is not suitable for my new writing style anymore (the pictures get out of frame).

Those are wordpress themes, so I don’t really know about Javascript.

Well, first of all, choosing a Windows Vista-like taskbar is a strange choice on a website about GNU/Linux games.
But I don’t mind that much, as long as the site is usable.

Another thing I would do is what most blog sites do: Show only the first parts of all the latest articles, so it’s easier to get a quick overview of them and then click on “read more…” to read the whole article.

Right now I have to scroll down a lot to see the previous articles or use the menu, which only shows the titles (and is hidden by default).
Another solution is to have the menu on the right always visible while you scroll down.

And make sure your site is always usable with text browsers as well, just in case, i.e. without javascripts, etc.
Accessibility and all that.

Due to the change in my writing style, I had to change the theme because as you could see – the images didn’t look well at all…
So I’m trying new stuff.

Suggestions are always welcome.

WTF???! I Thought I landed on another website! xD
Interesting design change. Although the OS-like bar at the bottom is really strange.
(but good idea to always have it visible)
