Have been playing around with some new blog templates over the past 24 hours. I was just tired of looking at the same old thing for a so long. Now, Blogger itself doesn't have a ton of template options, but there are a lot of others out there to be had if you know where to look...
I kinda came to a stopping point with this one for the time being. Sunk far too much of a Saturday into fiddling with this setting or that setting trying to make this "responsive" template look generally good on both desktop & mobile. Not really sure I like it, but meh, I'll leave it around for a little bit, see how everything works and whatnot. I can always change it back.
The one thing I do like is that you can see animated GIFs from the preview page. I mean those possibilities could be endless...
Hey Mike, I like this one! It's so much easier than the earlier one.
ReplyDeleteThanks Howard. If it gets your seal of approval, I'll keep it around then.
DeleteI'll second Howard. The other one felt "busy".
ReplyDeleteYeah, certainly had a lot on that old one. I guess that'll happen when your blog is almost 10 years old...tough to eliminate stuff.
DeleteI like it too. Now that you mention it, I think I'm in a bit of a rut as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark. Not too happy with the load time, but it'll do.
DeleteI'll keep an eye out at NCATrout to see if you change anything up.
It's looking good now! Much more modern.
