New Site Design
at 5.08pmYou may have noticed that I have just launched a new, improved site design. I decided on a new look in order to accomodate the changing direction of the site and my future plans for its content.
Before
After
The first thing you might notice is the wider layout (see the before and after screenshots) which allows for both a wider reading area and more content in the sidebars (more on that in another post). The shorter header section is more streamlined too which also gives over more space to content. The emphasis on content is also echoed by the new location of the sidebars on the right. Content is king!
So, what will all this space be used for? Well I am hoping to keep the content updated much more frequently and with much more of a technical emphasis. I have been working as a professional web developer for over a year now and it’s time I started documenting some of my experiences. Maybe somebody somewhere might find it useful as well as it being a good record for me in the future.
Any feedback or bug reports on the new design are more than welcome. I know its far from perfect but I hope to iron out all the major problems over the next few weeks.
Good grief, an update!?
The site’s looking much nicer now; looks like you figured out what to do about those buttons, and the increased width now means I’m only wasting half my screen space now. Huzzah!
Note: the extra sidebar isn’t present when viewing a single post, so it just looks like there’s a big white gap to the right of the normal sidebar, you may want to take a look at that
That problem should be fixed now. Glad you like the new design and thanks for the feedback!
