After a long winter break of coding and my first all-nighter in college, I've finally completed (sort-of) a redesign of my college newspaper's website!

It is now powered by WordPress and features a responsive design.

Please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions!

Nice! I've got to get on learning responsive design. I really like how it's laid out both on desktop browser and on the phone. Good work.

The only comment I have is a stupid nitpicky one. The logo and search bar seem to be placed too far to the right (desktop browser) and it seems to have pushed the search button beneath the search box. I guess this could have been intentional, but it looks a bit off. If you can pull the logo and search box left to fit the search button, I think it'd look cleaner.

Anyway, how do you like Binghamton btw? (I graduated in 2 years back. I wish I was still there!)

I like Skeleton[1] for responsive design, but for that type of responsive design (where it scales with every pixel, instead of resolution milestones like Skeleton does), Ingrid[2] is a new project I saw here recently.

I can't speak for Ingrid as I haven't used it, but with Skeleton, the only thing I needed to learn was a 960-like grid framework (which you should probably know anyway.)

Awesome job!! I need your guidance on wordpress as I am redesigning a site myself.. How did you get posts in different menu tabs. Are you using some post category plugin in wordpress?
