Hello all, I’ve finally launched my first Radiant powered site. > **[the science department](https://scidept.com/)** > > Personal website for Will Clark It’s a portfolio site for my design business. I’m hosting it on a slice host slice (the $20 jobber). Nginx + Mongrel on Ubuntu. I’m using Mental Branch. I’m using the RSS Reader and Mailer extensions. Also, FWIW, I’ve got “Thickbox” and sIFR 3 going on there and it validates XHTML and CSS (except for thickbox, none of those modal windows validate because of the opacity stuff). Hopefully you should see alot more out of me when it comes do documentation. I just left a steady job (friday) to go back to freelance so I have been desperate to get this out. Anyway, if anyone has any questions or anything, let me know. Just thought you guys would like to see another live site. BJ Clark the science department ---

Nice job - how did you get the nav to highlight the current page though?

Just saw this, Yeah, I used the r:navigation, I can post the actual code I used if you need to see it. As for the blog, it’s Mephisto, not radiant, because I really really like mephisto, and it’s broken cause I’m a lazy ass and way to busy with paying work. 😃 BJ ---

No, Just cloned the layout across both platforms. I couldn’t figure anything cool out because Mephisto uses liquid. BJ
