  • What I Did
  • I’ve tweaked the color scheme and messed around with getting appropriate links to show up as well. I messed about with page arrangements a bit but this theme seems to have some unusual restrictions as to which widgets can go where.

    • Why I Did It

    The blog currently has an affect that is somewhere between serene literary quote blogger and hermetic self-conversating, cave lurking, blogger. I’ve nothing against either, I’d just like to keep my aesthetic more consistent though.

    • What I Still Need to Do

    I’d like to get all of my main links ( Archives, Tags, Personal Info) all on the top bar of my blog but it looks like I’ll need to teach myself a bit more about how to turn widgets into pages that redirect the visitor. I’m not sure how I want to do it but I would also like to start integrating some more  aspects of multimodal design to add a little pizzazz to the blog to keep it from being a standard drudging site of static pages and blocks of text. I’ve been trying to keep my posts short and I’ve edited them after the fact to make them more concise, because no one really has time for farting around on long winded sentences like this one when they are perusing websites.
