Eh, the white main and sidebar columns surrounded by black don't really work (IMO). I tried that for about 30 seconds some years ago. I found that once you go black you'll never go back.
I'm still not totally in love with it, but, I don't want all black because I personally find that harder to read.
I'll probably be tinkering with it some more over the weekend though at this point, I can't do much more customizing without upgrading from the old template system of blogger to the newer layout system.
We were using an ancient version of Blogger. I've updated it -- which in addition to allowing me to play with the design more -- also added more functionality and options like showing followers, making it easier to subscribe, quicker loading of archives, etc.
I've added a PA State Blogroll and also added some blogs to the National & Pittsburgh lits.
There may be some more additions to the left side (like polls), but the look of blog is now pretty much set.

ReplyDeleteI'm referring to blog design.

What really kills me about Blogger is that when I upload a graphic, I have a choice of making it 'small,' 'medium' or 'large.'
ReplyDeleteThe large isn't really that large compared to the space it could occupy.
i love it!!!!
ReplyDeleteNice! For a spur of the moment I like it!
ReplyDeleteSorry. Not a fan.
ReplyDeleteFor me the design of your blog is of no consequence, I read it for the intelligence, insight & wit you & David share with us.
ReplyDeleteThanks to both of you for providing this online venue/forum, voi siete molto simpatici.
I would like to echo Gloria's comment, but also add the if the page loads more easily and quickly, I endorse it.
ReplyDeleteOf course, if we find day glo anything, pink, green or mauve (whatever that is) loads fastest, I will vote for slightly slower.

Well, it's been black... then white.. a 1/2 and 1/2 like Barack HUSSEIN Obama.
ReplyDeleteMay I suggest Red? That would fit better... and, be more truthful. Just sayin'
