When Scott’s Leviathan was published, his publisher hired a graphic designer to revamp his website in fine steampunk style. Alas, the firm wasn’t entirely conversant with WordPress’s best practices, and the result was a table-based (!) design that broke every time Scott added a large image. (Which he does every Friday.) I redid the theme in CSS, fixed the image issues, widgetized the sidebars, and built some custom mini-plugins to make it easier to maintain some of the fun little features, like the lizard message.
