As usual my technical deficiencies meant it took me longer than it should have (the photos in the sidebar were the problem) but I'm pretty happy with the result.
That'll have to be it for the night. Will post to celebrate my 8th birthday tomorrow.
It looks really good now!
ReplyDeleteHappy eighth birthday too. Mine is only seven, as of last September, and I think that it really needs a refresh too, but I'm not sure what that might involve.
Thanks a lot. I remember your birthday is September. Think it was the first conversation we had. Very happy with changes thanks Rich. I was told the old format was quite difficult to read with the photo behind so I thought I would give it a full re-vamp. It's based on one of Blogger's templates. I have to change all the photos I put in the sidebars into gifs of a specific width (probably an easier way) but it's not too bad once you get into the swing.
ReplyDeleteMy blog is also a simple Blogger template but I forget which one! All sidebar photos I use are resized to 320px (horizontal), always .jpg format (it happens but that is not material) as that is the largest it will display correctly. Those incorporated in the body text are typically 750px horizontal but I have to say that is somewhat variable because it does not seem to matter so much. I loved the industrial photos too - I must get out with my camera if it ever stops raining down here in Somerset.
ReplyDeleteI really must write some new content this weekend.
Yep, much more readable, Geoff!
