Tweaking the blog


Just trying to do a 3col for my blog. Sorry for the inconvenience visitors.  I try to view live as I'm tweaking! Please leave comments and let me know what I can change...if it's too dark or some tidbit.

Welcome! And thank you!

Have a fabulous day!

Good job sistah! if you know how, the middle column is a bit little, it doesn't cover your button or the subscriber, just mover over the right column, and then widen the middle column.. if you don't know how, I'd be happy to help!

I think it is looking awesome...and that picture takes my breath away!! I so wish I were there right now. I am loving the new look!

I agree, the 2 collumns on the right are a but skinny...but I love the header and the colors! Also, there are a few titles that say "Loren IPSUM" :)I am for sure coming back to see the finished product, looks great!

you are good!! Might I suggest using a different color for the subtitle, as the pale yellow disappears. otherwise, looks dandy!

Okay, my friend. I will tell you because you asked. Your blog takes longer to load than any blog I visit. And I have cable - the fastest connection you can get. It literally takes about two full minutes to load in. Now, with today's changes, that was not true. I think it took about 45 seconds. Maybe it was the program before? Maybe graphics heavy and not going through the normal filters? Not sure but I wondered sometimes if it kept people from dropping in. And then each time I moved around - to comment or link - the same 2 minute problem was present again. If I didn't have the time, I couldn't drop in for a quick "hello!"

I LIKE the new look and would only change the lettering color at the top so the test in yellow "popped." Yay for you for going out on a limb and asking us all!

I'm liking it so far! If you want to get rid of the jagged edges on your Twitter icon you want to find a file with .png on the end instead of .gif, you can find lots of them here: http://www.bloggodown.com/2009/05/400-beautiful-twitter-icons-for-your.html I LOVE the 3 column look though!
