The little HTML bone in my brain has been activated by some weird cosmic-radiation-that-generally-resurrects-the-dead-but-this-time-spawns-creativity, so I'm in the very initial stages of working on The Dink Network - Generation 9 and Miasma 3.

Generation 8 (the current look-and-feel of the site) is 'ok'. Not great by any means. One of the major changes in Generation 9 is to move to a tableless design, as I'd like the web site to eat stuff while seated in front of the TV, not whilst sitting down at the table. I mean, move to a CSS-based design, which isn't really *that* different from what we have now, but it would be *much* cleaner.

Miasma v2 (the current code that The Dink Network is running) works fine. Except when I want to change something. Imagine 6th dimensional spaghetti, and you'll come close to envisioning the logic of Miasma v2.

Basically, Generation 9 and Miasma 3 will be a fairly straight port from Generation 8 and Miasma v2. I don't plan on adding any huge new features or anything. But if you've always found something that bugged you or just looked ugly, please let me know.

Oh, and here's a quick (and early) peak at the Account area of Generation 9, the only thing of note is the right bar which is now done in loverly CSS.
