This site looks good, but that is not how it does on first install, it required cleaning a few hacks by Lamp to ensure it works across all browsers (worked in FF only on first install). So why did this theme make the featured list, simply because it’s beautiful. The theme itself (as claimed by the author) was inspired by Derek’s work (is.derekpunsalan.com) and has some similarity, especially the tree usage! This 2 and 3-columns theme is ideal for sites with more than just content, however, only the right sidebar is widget ready. If you are interested in this theme and would like to use our hack, comment and we can email you the style.css and sidebar.php files.

First of all, I’m super excited that someone even took time to talk about my theme, let alone modify it for the public! =D
If you would like, you can e-mail me the hacked files, and I’ll put them in the original package and bump it up a version, while giving you credit for the changes.
I’m not sure when you downloaded it, but yesterday I did modify it a bit, so that it would work in more browsers (I forgot a few auto margins =P).
Thank you for the critique!

I noticed this in your update:
When you have an ol or ul, the first piece of code forces the content to a strict width while padding left, which pushes the right sidebar further right making it drop in IE. I would simply delete the
part and let the rest be, that might get it working fine in IE. As for Opera, I will check it later tonight. Thanks.

Oh! Yes, that does do it. Thank you.
I believe the margin near the bottom for Opera has something to do with the floating of all the objects above the footer. I tried putting the margin on both the footer and the floats. I think I’ll try padding the bottom of the floats…

The padding-bottom worked. Wish I would have thought of that earlier… =P

The demo shows an error opening the first entry, hardcoded gravatar plugin call by the looks of it.

I just noticed, it is the Gravatar tag, I will look into fixing it.

I added an if(function_exists()) to each.
