New theme is live!

| July 23rd, 2007

Ok everyone, here is is, if you seeing this on RSS you need to click on over! I have been working on this theme forever it seems! This has definitely been the most challenging theme to customize. I still have some minor tweaks that I couldn’t do on the testing server, but other than that, we are good to go. Please comment and let me know what you think, if there should be any changes, etc. And if you know how to center this theme, that would be most helpful! :-)

Thanks for being so patient, hopefully this theme will serve you better!

    I feel horrible, because I know I’ve been here before but i can’t remember what it used to look like. Anyway, I really like it now. It looks great! I like the muted colors and I love your little logo up there. Great job.

    I don’t know how your site looked before so it would be nice to see a reference. I’m not sure how I feel about your new design. I don’t want to get into a critique of your design but one thing is for sure.

    You’re losing money because of it.

    The graphic titles you are using for your posts are killing you SEO wise. Same as on your other blog. They look nice but aren’t helping your efforts. SEO equals $$$ and you’re shooting yourself in the foot.

    One other thing… You used HTML to design your blog! To me that is a big No-No. It’s way better to have your layout completely CSS. It does help in the search engines as it removes excess code and moves your content up on the page.

    I know a video demonstration would of been better for this as I could show you exactly what’s wrong. I think I might start offering that.

    If you need any help let me know, or if you just want to say Hi feel free to contact me.

    I appreciate the comments! I will try to implement most of them through the next few weeks as I tweak it more. As for the title images though, they are search engine friendly, it is a plugin I am using. I know I used HTML in the design, and that it is not the best way at all, but it was the only way I could get those tabs to show (at the time) I am looking into some tutorials to get that switched to CSS.
