As you've probably noticed (if not, seek help), the blog has a new look. I was tired of the blogger template that lots of people have, so I went searching for a new one last night. The mistake: starting the search at 11:30pm. It was 2:30am (!!!) before the new template was installed and functional. In the interim, I looked at hundreds of designs and tried out at least 6 or 7 others. Only 2 were serious contenders, but I couldn't get the blasted things to work. One refused to add the image that made it worthwhile (not sure it was "me" anyway, but it was super cool), and the other couldn't accommodate the length of my blog name. Given that I know nothing about html, this was like running into a brick wall. I tried to go in and make adjustments, but it was beyond me to know which line of nonsense needed to be tweaked.
The one I settled on gets points for actually working (hurrah!) and for the groovy, relaxing blue design up top. I hope the smaller font is still readable for everyone. This was something I tried to tweak last night, but every attempt to make it bigger made it disappear. Hrumph. Maybe someday I'll learn a little html and do something truly custom. In the interim, blue swirls it is!

Nice new look, Becca. You did good!
Thanks Bev! :)
I like it! I like it!
At first I noticed an absence of pictures and wondered if this blog design didn't allow for pictures. Then I turned the page and saw your previous pictures. Had to delete my previous comment or I would have looked impatient at best, and stupid at worst!
Bev, do you mind sharing where you ended up finding other templates? I also would love to change the look of mine!
Whoops! Sorry for calling you Bev instead of Becca....it's still early here in Vermont!
