We have altered the layout of the blog significantly since your last visit, I’m sure. We are still in the process of updating everything, so this might not be the final look, but the bonuses for this layout are already clearly seen. For instance, authors are now visible at the beginnings of posts. That alone justifies the change.
The background image and banner are NOT finalized. We have a couple of artsy people mulling over potential replacements for the background and banner. If you want to help our artsy people out, you are welcome to join discussion on our forums.
If you want to bitch about the color choice before the background and the banner are finalized, then you should probably save your breath because the colorwheel isn’t turning until those two are semi-final. But if you don’t want to save your breath, feel free to comment to this post.
Edit: As of 5:33 PM Sunday, we have integrated the log-in page with the site, allowed for the use of personal avatars (in case you don’t know how to change your global avatar), and fixed a number of sizing issues. I imagine I’ll continue making improvements whenever I have time to.
Attached is the current background and banner image. I’m not entirely sure what the ultimate source of it is, but I thought it looked pretty.
*bitch bitch bitch*
Actually, I am fond of blue. So I’ll hold off on commenting on colors until we have finalized pictures.
In general, this new layout makes me very happy. Gogo revitalization!
