Site Makeover!

1. rinnah  April 17, 2008 8:51 pm

   I’m on IE7 and the Google ads on the top is overlapping into the bar at the top… but I like the font size and the layout of the sidebars!

   Though I miss the links that allow me to browse between the previous article and the next article. But that’s just me.

   I love the new layout - v. cute! (I’m one firefox, it works like a charm. Which is nice, as a lot of layout revamps show up jumbled on the new firefox)

   Nice work. A bit busy between the posts and the comments though, but that’s just me. Overall, love the colour theme

   Rinnah: Your wish is my command! The links are back. They were always there just MIA coz of wonky code.

   Tine: Thanks. I’m trying to work out the bit between the posts and comments but hopefully it looks better in a longer post

   I like it. Though the google adsense is a bit odd positioned, caught me off guard for a while there. But overall, great job! Btw, have you ever bought Steve Madden online?

   this is something I can’t help you as I am an idiot when it comes to technical stuff. but i just want to tell you the new one is equally as good as the old. it took me a while to find the comment button though and I have a bit of problem with the side bars being dull brown and burgundy. i want colours! But you know me and shiny colourful things…

   Andie: Thanks I’ll work out the adsense thingy lol… And no I haven’t worn Steve Madden before so I dare not buy online yet.

   Jojoba: I worked out a clearer comment button, but I can’t do anything about the background I’m afraid. Too much of a dummy hehe..

   lalala: Aww… I actually liked the brushes too hehe… but I discussed it with a friend who suggested that it be more streamlined. Maybe we’ll have brushes again soon. Thanks for the feedback!

    Brilliant! Create a little more space between your sidebar widgets as they are a bit cramped up. And get yourself a nice looking logo for a song at the forum I told you about. It will do wonders to the branding of this blog

    I think the site seems to work a lil faster for me now. But visually, I find the copy (in design we call it leading–vertical space between each sentence) a bit too tight. So when you look at it, everything feels a bit more cluttered. If you opened up the leading some, I think it will feel easier to read. Also, I miss your top banner pic–there isn’t one now? Felt warmer overall when you had one Sorry so opinionated!

    Just wanted to add–feel free to call or email me if you need help with your layout. Not web savvy, but am design savvy

    I actually preferred the previous “sandwich” method of a sidebar on either side - made it easier to navigate. And I’d echo Pablopabla’s response as well…turn My Women Stuff into a brand, woot!

    Other than that, hey, as long as the CONTENT doesn’t change, I’m a happy chickie.

    Pablo: I tried and I hope it doesn’t look so cramped anymore. Will look into a logo soon.

    Monstro: Thanks! I’ll be in touch with ya. Only problem is, I’m not html savvy too! So I guess we can come up with a nice design and then umm… work on it?

    beetrice: LOL No the contents won’t change but I was getting bored with the previous layout. Who knows, things might change again later! I’m female and fickle
