 * Can anyone help me with the following problem. I’ve modeled my site after one
   that I found and really liked. I’m close, but I’m interested in organizing my
   posts vertically like he has here.

 * I also want to add content in blocks like he has at the bottom of his page. Is
   this something I can do with a plugin or is this a CSS design issue?

 * Just a thought, I am not sure if it’ll work, but you could add
    `<li></li>` tags
   within the loop around each post, set a width to it in your stylesheet and display
   inline so someting like `<div class="content"> <li>Post</li> <li>Post</li> <li
   >Post</li> </div>
 * in your styleshet
 * `.content li {width: 150px; display: inline;}`
 * Also if you do decide to do it that way, you’re going to have to make your posts
   shorter and limit the number of them.

 * or you could something like…
 * `.post {
    float: left; width: 200px; }
 * something like that and some adjustment. And instead of the full content, you
   might want to display the excerpt instead so that the length can be controlled.

 * Would that work? That might just float one thing to the left and the next one
   overlapping it or underneath of it. Might work in firefox but not sure about 
   IE. Give it a try though if it works it is a much more simple solution!

 * Dude, it’s just like arranging images in your photo gallery page. How’d you do
   it?

 * Hrm I tried it and it works pretty well. I remember I tried that on my site but
   it didn’t work very well for me just because I had other floating parts in it.
   Like I had my post content float: left, then I also had a expandible menu which
   when expanded added a huge gap of white space to the page so I had to do something
   other than use float: left to try it.
 * Anyways whatever works
