A New Look
It’s opinion time.
Kevin gave me a couple of links to easily change the look of my blog. It involves no “techy” work at all, which is good, because I don’t really care that much about the tech part of the site. I don’t like dealing with the code and programming and all that (every time I link to something I make Kevin tell me the code for it). All I really want to do is have a place to ramble.
So here’s the deal. I’ve been looking through some of the skins that people have created. Some of them are sort of fun looking (all though I am sure that the graphic designers of the world are sheilding their eyes, but whatever), some of them are cutesy looking and some I can’t decide if they are so ugly they are cool, or if they are just plain ugly. I’ll probably switch the look of my blog several times before I decide on one, so if you have any input on the look, now is the time to speak up. I won’t be offended if you can’t stand it since I didn’t design it. So, tell me what you think.
I like the green. Of course I would, considering how my blog looks. The color scheme is OK. It’s not like “Wow!” but it’s generally pleasant. Kinda mild. Maybe that’s one criticism I’d give it: it’s too bland.
I’d like to see some pictures or graphics worked into it somewhere. Busy it up a tiny bit, but not too much. Unbusy is better than overbusy by miles.
I think this one is pretty bland too. The title of it is called forest and it’s supposed to have a graphic is all the dark green bars that gives it a little more depth, but something isn’t working right. We’re waiting to see if the movable type people can fix it.
It’s hard to read the green text on green background. Cool to see you experimenting!
I was wondering about that. I’m getting impatient waiting for the response from the moveable type people. If I don’t hear from them by Tuesday, I’m changing the background. I like the brown/green combo, but it’s just too boring.
