As you can no doubt tell if you’re reading this on the site, (rss subscribers click here), things look way different around here. I’m running a new WordPress theme that is more blog-like and it’s what I’ll be using on here for the foreseeable future. Now, there are also some changes also to where things are located that I’d like to go over..
My blog roll is now located in the sidebar instead of a separate page. Both categories, Homies, and LinkLove are still used, they’re just now located in the sidebar.
I’ve trimmed down the amount of static pages and the links to those can be found in the header.
Each post has two nifty little icons in the upper right corner. The one that looks like a little window will minimize the post so all you see is the title and date, while the icon with two arrows will make the content area take up the whole page and get rid of the sidebars. Go ahead, try them out… cool huh?
I’ll probably be tweaking this a little bit more over the next few days and weeks until I get everything just right. Things actually look a lot like they did when I first started this blog a year ago, so it’s kind of neat for me to have a “throwback” theme of sorts.
What do you think of the new look? Like it? Hate it? Anything it needs?
Let me know so I can make it better.

Dude I love it.
The two buttons on the top right are cool, they're just a little too small.
One of my favorite things is: the sidebar takes about about the same amount of space as the post + comments. It feels very balanced. splendid.
And the handwriting up top is working for me.
Good work friend!
