New prison site

There’s not much in the way of content there yet, but I just created a new site for people in the FWBO who work in prisons, so that they can share that aspect of their practice with the world.

I tried to go for a design that was rather different from any of the other sites I’ve made. I was striving for minimalism, but that’s, I discovered, is a hard path; minimalism can look very cold and stark, yet a touch of color can propel it into the realms of the garish or kitsch. I’ll probably look for another background image: a line drawing of the 1000-armed Avalokitesvara would be idea if I can find one.

Incidentally, the site looks best on anything but Internet Explorer 6. IE6 is now five or six years old, horribly insecure, and lacking in the most basic features like tabbed browsing and popup blockers that you expect from a modern browser like Firefox, Opera, or Safari (any of which I would use in preference to IE). Do yourself a favor if you haven’t already made the switch.
