BLADAM 2.0[?]: Life, Liberty, Love and Stuff
DISCLAIMER: This is my personal blog. The blatherings here aren't (necessarily) the views of the current company I work for, companies I've previously blessed with my presence, my loving parents, the Illuminati, or anyone other than me, me, me!

BLADAM news:  Groovy navigation! :)


Okay, I know, I'm such a geek, but I just had to share with you that I stayed awake this morning until 5am to build you, my humble visitors, new ways to navigate through this blog.Via the navigation panels on the top, bottom, and right-hand side, you can now browse by category, see an index of all entries, and view category indexes (indices?) as well.

Now I'd like you to speak up: Do the options make sense or are some things confusing? Am I presenting the right amount of options, or is stuff too cluttered now (particularly on the top and bottom of entries or listings)?

I write for myself, of course, as most writers do, but I do keep this public blog for your enjoyment. I'm honored to have you visiting, and I thank you in advance for your feedback smile

Faf… you wouldn’t be the first to suggest that!

In the last iteration of my site, many folks complained that it was too blandly colored.

Hopefully one of these days I’ll find a happy medium!  Luckily, though, my site is coded in XHTML and CSS, so changing colors and so on is a snap.

Any color in particular you think should get ditched? :D

i wouldnt know which colors to ditch. just dont make them too varied.

like your sidebar thingies have a different color from you blog entry backgounds. in fact that bit alone has 3colors

the left sidebar has one more different color.

Okay, I think I got it.
“Fewer colors… it’s hurting my head!  Must reduce colors!” :D

Just did a redesign (colorwise, with a few other minor fixins’ thrown in).  Better? smile
