I've had this blog for almost 18 months now. I've made relatively few changes to its set up. I like the current format in a lot of ways.
But Blogger has come up with a lot of new & beautiful designs. I switched over I looked for love. It took a bit of work. I lost a couple of things. I've played with different formats & colors.
I'm going to switch this one over, but i'm a bit fearful. I don't want to lose anything!
I do like & use these colors:
Ok, these didn't line up so well. These are the colors, to wear & to look at, that i'm drawn to again & again. I use similar colors in the blog set up currently. What i'm seeing in the other designs is that i tend toward a greener look, more like what I looked for love is currently.
Anyway, i'm going to give it a try. I'll probably also create tabs for most of the info currently in sidebar. I like a wide page without a lot of other stuff to distract from it. So, wish me luck! If this doesn't work, it may not be easy to recreate what i currently have as Duane has re-written some of the HTML for me. :)
(Ok, it is done, what do you think? Is it too irritating to have the background show up thru the post? Post #350 ! )
Ok, a few things are still under construction, but most of it is up.
Here is how it used to look, just 'cause i want to remember.

I like the new look. The other was was fine also. Yes, I like your color palette! Thanks for the kind words on my blog. I have been sick lately, so I appreciate your prayers. I am not used to being sick.
I prefer shorter blog posts--just my opinion. But it's your blog, so you should do what you want. My posts can be long at times also.
Thanks, Ms. Mommy. :)
Hope you are feeling better soon. Being sick is draining, & i know you're used to lots of energy.
Sorry about the grant scam thing.
Well I love it! It's very fresh, and cheerful. You chose a very good color for the text, a lot of times floating text can be difficult to read, but this is quite easy.
It looks a bit like an impressionist painting in the background. It's very soothing, well done!
I personally have no graphics talent, whatsoever, so even though I'd like to change mine a bit, it will be like it is until the end.of.time.
Or thereabouts ;-)
I really like the new look-it is very easy to read and love the colors:)
