After two long days of toiling about neck-deep in code and whatnot, I'm finally done overhauling the site. It's basically the same, but I've streamlined and personalized the design to make it a little more user-friendly and ... well, personal, ironically enough.
Modifications include: • Slightly different color schemes, such as a lighter background and bluer fonts;• Larger fonts, so those out there who aren't blessed with microscopes for eyes can read, too;
• A new Feeds widget, for anyone wishing to subscribe via RSS, ATOM or such feed types;
• Slightly modified Profile;
• A new Navigation Bar above the main area of the page with 4 features: — Home: Brings you back to the main page from anywhere on the site;
— About Me & Respectful Defiance: A longer profile about yours truly, and some general info on this blog and its purpose;
— Contact Me: All the info you need to reach me via eMail, and some regulatory warnings about misbehavior;
• Expandable posts for some of my longer entries, where very long posts of mine are hidden until you click 'Read More!' for the sake of fluidity (as well as bandwidth speed);
• Streaming Audio (coming soon): Instead of my old methods of creating a video for each song I wish to broadcast, I've finally learned how to write clickable links that start your default Media Player to playback songs and audio.
• Google Custom Search (coming soon), so this blog will be fully searchable. Faster than ferreting through archives at any rate. ALL of the above has been taken directly from the wonderful-yet-painfully-slow-loading site from The Blog Doctor, 'Vin'. I'd send him/her chocolates and flowers if I didn't fear it was a guy. (Awkward questions.) The site looks rather better now, so enjoy! ... my tired rants! ;)
