   hi,
   i've been trying to integrate the nicer archives plugin/hack with my installation of wp 1.5, but just keep running into different problems:
   -The original source is written for an older version of wp, and thus does not integrate with the theme correctly. having said that, it otherwise works perfectly. there are no new versions for 1.5, as far as i can tell.
   -trying to apply the fixes mentioned elsewhere on these forums yields no joy- I've tried the ezstatic plugin to do this (just get a blank page), tried making the code changes mentioned to bring the template in (which works, but then i am limited to showing n number of posts; the "perpage" plugin doesn't seem to help here either.

   so... right now i am sacrificing form for function; if you look at http://www.surrealroad.com/digital/master_archive.php you'll see the archive works, but does not use the template.
   if anyone has any pointers, i'd appreciate it

   Are you sure this is the correct path?
   @import url( /wp-layouttest.css );

   that is part of the problem. the version of nicer archives does not seem to read the theme settings from wordpress at all, so all the elements look wrong. even if i manually change the stylesheet to reference the correct one explicitly, it still looks wrong, because it uses the wrong tags.

   So eliminate all the headaches and install Super aschives. Easy to instal and look better also.

   I've looked at super archives but I prefer the capability to allow the user to sort the output, for example by category

   the path to your .css is not correkt
   and so it couldn't work

   @import url( /wp-layouttest.css )
   means that the wp_layouttest.css is in your root folder
   but there is no wp_layouttest.css
