New look for the blog

It looks a bit different around here…….

I have known for some time now that nobody was availing of the “tweets’ that appeared on my home page and very few people were using the ‘flickr’ link. So, recently i’ve been working on a site for my wife and a friend of ours – which is a secret for now – and i took a chance on ‘the standard theme‘ for wordpress, which id heard great things about. During that process i decided to change ‘supersimbo.’

The big positive that swayed my decision was the flexibility of this theme, even though as you see, i am still trying to keep a clean simple image.

If you want to find my twitter homepage, my flickr homepage or my linkedin profile there is a link to each in the top right of the page. If you want to subscribe, the link to do that is in the same place. The rest should be self-explanatory ……..

Some content will appear in the sidebar soon, i hope. After that, who knows what could happen………..

    Connor – very easy to use theme, you would like & my new look was really quite simple – a more comprehensive re-design would be wee buns for you

    it is easy to customise? change things around, I tend to faff about in css and stuff, but php isn’t my strong point, i have a habit of breaking my blog… lol

    Yea. 90% of what i changed here is in the custom CSS folder and very easy with a bit of patience – there were a couple of PHP issues buut if you buy the support license all the help you would need is in the forums…..if you buy go via the link on my sidebar like a good lad :)
