With even more hacking, I implemented the image overlay thing the Cutline authors did on their blog. This floats another image on top of the randomly changing header.

I also tweaked the vertical spacing in various header elements to make things look right. The only thing that’s really a hack is the Cutline guys’ deal where they hyperlink the floating image by hyperlinking random text associated with a particular region of the floating image, but they hide the actual text by left indenting it by -9999 pixels. Which took a little tinkering to figure out.

But I think I’m happy now with what I’ve got. Everything’s actually working and nothing looks like ass.

So maybe I should go to sleep so I can get up early tomorrow to clean the cat boxes and take out the trash.
