You may have noticed the new blog look. WooHoo! Not. . .
I didn't do it on purpose!
Over the last few months, Blogger has been 'upgrading' (read: slowing down response times and making everything have a BORING white background). Everytime I logged on to post something, "they" kept sending me to the template screen. I felt like a horse being led to water and I sure didn't want to drink!
If you remember, I did ask for input on my blog awhile back, though, of course, no one bothered to chime in with any suggestions . . .
Anyhoo, I was playing around with a template and clicked publish to blog WITHOUT BOTHERING TO SAVE MY ORIGINAL TEMPLATE DESIGN.
My bad.
There it is, just call me a genius.
So over the next few weeks I'll be playing with the design of the blog and template until I find something that makes me happy.
Just deal with it.
I have to.
Who knows maybe I'll figure out how to custom install the rune design on THE GOBLIN'S APPRENTICE header into the background, or incorporate the medallion into the header. I don't know what I'll be doing, but I will guareentee that I will NOT be using warm colors like yellow, pink or red.
I like those colors, just not on my blog.
I simply don't find those colors soothing. . . . maybe it had something to do with working for 20 years in a lab with some putridly awful yellow and red walls. *shudder*
Later, Peeps!
Bummer! Blogger and I have our MOMENTS too. :) Less now than before. I hope you figure it out--I know how frustrating it can be!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was nice. Your covers kinda pop!
ReplyDeleteMy only suggestion--
ReplyDeleteWordpress.
I've tried both and WP is so much easier. Or maybe it's what I'm used to.
Anyway . . . just have fun with it. It's kind of refreshing this way. (I like my pink right now, but I might not tomorrow.)
:p

I know how to work with blogger if you need any help with tweaks.
ReplyDeleteI like that I can get into the programming of blogger and play around. Not so with WordPress.
But blogger does have some idiosyncrasies that drive me nuts...like how photo behave in a post. WordPress is so much better for photos!
Good luck!
Heather--thanks for the support. I think I just became complacent with my old blog since I had it for so long.
ReplyDeleteMeg--thanks, Meg! I like soothing colors of green and blue, so I'll work with those colors.
Susan--I'm not interested in changing to Wordpress, but thanks for the suggestion. I've played around with the various templates and colors, but right now I simply didn't plan to spend the time on it.
Cyndi--thanks. Question: Can I upload a header of my own design? If so, where do I go to do that?
