Well, there are still a few hiccoughs…a few glitches in the Matrix…a few things I’d like to do to tidy up around here that I’m either a) not sure how to do or b) not sure what to do about yet. But for the most part, this might be the show for a wee while. It’s kind of like a new hair cut — I need to wait a few days before I decide if I like it.
So, I was wondering if you might be desirous of the opportunity to comment (positively or negatively, bold-faced or anonymously), and I would love to hear your thoughts. Especially if there are glitches or things missing or anything else I’m not thinking of. You know I’m pregnant and my brain is in a gabillion places at once, right?
And did you see that I created a wee blog badge? {Scroll down and look on the right for the code.} I think they’re usually that size but now that I look at it, it seems kind of small. What do you think?
Anywho…I’d love to hear your thoughts! Seriously, positive or negative people…just because I’m pregnant doesn’t mean I can’t take it! And Hero Hubs has great shoulders for crying… 😉
Happy Tuesday, I need to hit the sack!
Hola Chica – long time no speak ha ha
Sorry we didn’t catch up while you were in the states – but the plan is for that to change sometime in summer 2011!!!
Okay just a quick glimpse – like the new look – didn’t realize you were changing it up – haven’t had a chance to do much exploring but here is something I’d like to see. I wish you would go back to just showing a “preview” of your posts on your home page and we have to click on to read entire thing.
The reason I say this is because sometimes I miss a few days and when I check back in I have to scroll down so far and I’m not exactly sure how many I’ve been through – not sure that others may have the same problem. But if ya just show the preview then more of your lovely posts are held on the home page inviting us to click on and read more!!! just my 2 cents or whatever that rand or whatever you call it might be! 😉
Hey Neal! I am sorry we didn’t get to see you as well. It will be great to see you in Mama Africa this year if it works out!! Thanks so much for the feedback. I was thinking about reloading the post preview feature, kind of staring at the spot behind the scenes where I click and click to make that happen, and trying to decide whether it was nice or not so nice for readers — I wasn’t sure whether it annoyed people to have to click to read the whole post, or whether people prefer to be able to click and choose from the home page. I think I will play around with that tomorrow and see how it turns out! Thanks so much for the feedback!
Caroline-Wanted to comment yesterday on the new design/layout, but then I thought maybe I was behind the times and it wasn’t such a new thing, so I didn’t comment. But, I think it looks GREAT (love the mini fam pictures on the side), and, as always, introspective and uplifting. Keep doing what you’re doing!!
Hey. I like it. Looks clean and upbeat. I will say, When I read, “I’m a Carolina girl, but I live in South Africa. I think. I bake…. etc.” I first thought you were saying that you “thought” you lived in SA. Then I realized you were listing things you do, such as bake, parent, etc. So. If you had started with another one of those “I ….” things, I wouldn’t have been confused. It was the “I think” coming right after “I live in South Africa” that threw me off.
Annie Beth, when I write a book, will you read the first draft? You are so great. I don’t like that thingy at all (including the words) but I’m struggling to decide what to put in that wee space so that the BlogHer ad isn’t the first thing you see off the bat. It’ll be changing soon — thanks for pointing out the amusing ambiguity! What ninnymuggins doesn’t know where she lives? 😉
I like it, nice and clean.
Keep up the good work!
So far I like what I see. Love the new photos at the top. Very nice indeed!
Yay! Thanks! This design work sometimes reminds me of creating media guides back in the day… except I’m not assigned the cross country team and I get to work with colour! 🙂
I love Century Gothic font, so a huge thumbs up from me!!!
