Back to Work
Well, business resumes as normal at Acne Vitamins today, and boy is there a lot of extra work to be done. We received more orders than expected over the holiday weekend, so there’s a big backlog to take care of, and then there’s a few deadlines to meet with our new marketing arrangements as well. We may start doing some print ads next year, although you probably will not see them unless you live in Florida (at least for the first part of the year). Online marketing can get expensive, but at least you get guaranteed returns, while offline advertising always involves a bit of a gamble.
Also, while experimenting with adding a watermarked background to Acne-Vitamins, I noticed a weird glitch in our html. It seems that the central table of our site shifts a few pixels to the left whenever you load a new page. I would never have noticed this if not for the background experiment, as it is very subtle. If you hit reload the page becomes centered again. Also, it only happens with Internet Explorer, not FireFox. The background was only a simple gradient and isn’t that important, but now I’m interested as to why exactly the pages shift like this, as I’ve never heard of such a thing happening before. If you visit the health links page and then reload you should see the change occur around the edges of the page (although sometimes you need to follow a link and then press back to see it).
