New Blog Design

I've been working on redesigning my blog for a couple of weeks now. It's something I've been wanting to do for awhile. I'm pretty happy with some of the more dynamic features.

New Features:

  • Contests/Giveaways around the blogosphere can now be listed on of the right side.
  • Spotlight Items at the top in header.
  • Comments are now embedded.
  • Featured video on the right side.

Please have a look around. Let me know what you think or if something is broke.

For the comments can you put the option to allow commenter's to follow up on comments ..

Hi E.H.,

Thank you! Flash thing is actually javascript, I like it because I can add to it on the fly.

The comments has two options for follow up comments: Subscribe by email and Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom) - this is a little towards to bottom. Let me know if don't see any of these options.

Hi Donna,
Love the new look, the javascript feature is definitely an eye catcher but also love the background and the contrast it gives. Two thumbs up for you!!

Lovely job on the new blog decor Donna! :)

Donna said...

Hi Everyone!

I'm glad all of you took the time to check my new design and let me know what you think about it. Funny thing, I'm still getting use to it myself, even after working on the test site for several weeks.

Now I need to add some stuff to my new little go-go gadgets. :)

Thank you,
Donna
