TinyMCE is ugly!

I worked on a better User Interface for TinyMCE, inspired by the new Wordpress interface. The intention is to make TinyMCE easier to use and read for bloggers, editors. TinyMCE is ugly, but thank god, it left some options to design it so we could have something like this :

Matt Mullenweg just posted that TinyMCE, a WYSIWYG HTML editor, has been integrated into Wordpress 1.6. Drupal actually has three separate WYSIWYG modules available, but both Bryght and CivicSpace have chosen to include TinyMCE in their bundles.

Troy complained about the lack of WYSIWYG recently. I threw TinyMCE at him, and he actually did find that it munged cut and paste from Word a little bit, but with the many hundreds of thousands (millions?) of users of Wordpress and Drupal using TinyMCE, I'm sure we'll see it improve very quickly from it's already great state. So that's momentum.

The commodity part is that we can now place a checkmark in the WYSIWYG column. We don't have to worry about it...it's just there.
