I have finally, after far too long, converted my blog to Blogger's "Layout" format and it seemed like a good time to make a few changes. There's a new image up top and I have deleted the long Blogroll in the sidebar. Do you miss it? It was getting unwieldy, in my opinion.
It's a work in progress. Comments are always welcome!
A nice clean look and very refreshing with Mt. Hood out there!!
ReplyDeleteI like your new header and the change to sans-serif font. I don't miss the blog roll. I click on links within blog posts and links in comments, and really enjoy those referrals, but seldom click on blog rolls.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and fresh modern header! -- Well, I love blog rolls, because I use them to travel into new regions and discover surprising things. blogs without roll stop my journey, because the commenters are more or less the same, and the most interesting people often don't have the time to comment.
ReplyDeleteI miss yours.
You should have warned us that you were getting rid of your blog-roll! I loved it--quirky sites that weren't a daily visit but a guilty pleasure.
ReplyDeleteBlog looks great - elegant!

Nice look but I liked the blog roll, too.
ReplyDeleteNice clean look which will let the posts of your great work shine.
ReplyDeleteLike!!
ReplyDeleteI love the new "clean" look. I always wondered how you managed to visit all those Blogs in your list!
ReplyDeleteOH, no! You should have warned us about the disappearing blog roll. It has been the source of many of my regular blog reads. Is it possible to send me a copy of the final version? I will miss it so much in the wee hours when I want to go on a blog wander. As lovely as it is, it will take a few weeks to adjust to Mt. Hood on top. Del
ReplyDeleteThe new look is very refreshing, I love the header. The bird's eye view piece is lovely- I fly out of Boise a couple times a year and I love the bird's eye view, i always get a window seat.
ReplyDeleteHah! Looks like people got you to put the blog roll back! Eve if they are awfully long, they are useful - plus it kind of quietly gives a nice little thumbs up to the folks on your list. Which reminds me that I never got around to totally filling out my blogroll when I redid my site3 months ago - yikes another thing to add to the neverending to do list! When I do, you'll be there!
ReplyDeleteRegarding your layout - the header is very nice - but the site feels a bit skinny, and the text size/spacing is on the large size making it feel even more crowded - no crowded it not the right word...The more I look at this, the more I like it...but when I first clicked through from the blog reader my 1st thought was - whoa! Skinnny!
