Because everyone else is doing it, that's why.

Couldn't resist changing the format of the blog a bit. Not sold on the color combination, but I like the fact that it is much wider now. New office, new look to the blog. What can I say? If DamnGoodTechnician and drdrA can do it, why can't I? The only thing I can't seem to do is change the header text color independently of the body text, but I'll live with it.

  1. Blogger gives you the option to upload your own header as a .jpeg or .gif so you can just link to the whole shebang. (I did that with mine)

    Black and white is a little harsh on the eyes...

  2. NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

    Light text on a dark background is a fucking abomination to read. It goes against the constraints of human visual system physiology. For fuck's sake, don't do this!

  3. Yeah, I liked this template for the wider main section, but I'm not 100% sure I like the sidebar. Meh. It's a question of diminishing returns - sure, it could be 3x better if I spent 30x more time on it, but I'm satisfied with 1.5x better for 15x time. Also, not a fan of the white-txt-on-black-background.. ouch!

  5. Hey that's a nice header photo. FYI, I'm not done yet- I'm not yet settled on my new format- so change may yet be in the wind...

  6. Hahahaha, I could hear the screams from here. That was SO worth it. Anyway, hopefully this background works a little better.

  7. The header photo is from a trip I took to the Canadian High Arctic a few years ago. I've always liked it.

  8. Shit, now the header looks like garbage but I don't have time to mess with it much more today. Well, a work in progress.

  9. Anyone know how to center the header? I played with the #header {position: } field, but can't seem to move much.
