How the Acecast web site is created.
All text entries are written in Vim as flat text files.
Blosxom creates the static web pages from the text files, with some help of SSIs (server side includes).
The layout is a customized version of Iztsu theme for Blosxom. I have unwrapped the theme to a Blosxom flavour and tidied up some of the code.
The RSS 2.0 feed is created by a couple of home rolled Blosxom flavours. One to produce valid RSS 2.0 with enclosures; another to point to something which looks nice in your RSS viewer (no menus, just the entry).
I use very few graphic elements on purpose. The MP3/Podcast logos are by Tim Madden.
The colour schemes were created with help from Wellstyled (F00, Triad, almost max angle) and Eric Meyer’s colour blender.
