Do you like the new look on the blog? I went to shabbyblogs for the free background, which I think is super cute. They have a really good selection and it's very user friendly. I did want to pick something that wasn't to distracting so that's why I went for muted tones. I also redesigned the header. I was the same image that I had been using for the past year and a half, and it looked a bit fussy. I went for a crisp font and used some of my many photos of buttons.I also added a quick 'interesting, cool, and like' button at the end of each post. I like using this tool on facebook, it's a very handy way of saying you like something without having to leave a comment. I didn't even know it was an option until last night when I went browsing around through all the tools/functions. Lastly I've also added a search bar to the top so you can search the blog for exactly what you're looking for.
Any other suggestions to make this beast more user friendly?
Hey Ruth - out of interest, what size is your new pretty banner - I've been meaning to make one for AGESSSSSS for LuckyRainbowDesigns and its been so long since I toyed with photoshop!!! :)x
ReplyDeleteHey it's 100 dpi, 50cm by 12cm. I'm sure you could have it wider but I'm happy that it doesn't take up too much space
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteVery bright and fun!
Wonderful new look to your blog! You have inspired me to go change mine up a bit. I'm going to have to add a banner and I really like the cool like buttons =)
