Yesterday I was all tizzy because I felt that my blog design was lame, ill-fit and secondhand. I then transformed the sidebar into something new, which turned out a disaster because all the different styles incorporated into the design looked even more out-of-touch than their boring predecessors.
So, here it is, the new design, layout and style. I kept the original colouring (to hold on to some consistency) and the already new sidebar, popped a new header unto it all, tweaked the main text a bit, and moved some little things around. It sounds all too easy, and it could have been an easy task if the code behind it all wasn’t a gigantic mess. Considering the fact that this is the umpteenth update to the design and layout, the code has gotten a bit messy and the naming a bit random. I’ll have to fix that another time.
I haven’t yet previewed the site in all browsers (I know, I know, big no-no, but give me a break), so there might be some small (or giant, I don’t know) bugs in it all. But for now, I believe a piping-hot cup of tea is awaiting my company.
"Hey, I just wanted to — Wait. Where did the commenting form go?"
So, I stopped doing comments on my blog. Twitter, Facebook, and good-old e-mail do a much better job, in my experience and opinion.
