What do you think?
When I read that Blogger was introducing the possibility of wider columns, I jumped. I liked the dignified look but couldn't keep it with the new design.
Does anyone care?
AHA! Figured out how to change the width and keep the dignified look and previous colours. I had to say goodbye to the bolts in the background.

I like it except that the green writing on the RH side is very hard to read. The darker green is okay but not the lighter green.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what you mean? Do we like the new format? I think it looks pretty cool. I like the green but agee the lighter green is a bit harder to read.
ReplyDeleteDitto on what the others said. And I love the fabric bolts in the background.
ReplyDeleteYes, let's have more content per page! These teeny narrow columns are awful space wasters, all that dead real estate on both sides: ick! I'm sure we can change the background just as we did with the previous format.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the new format! I really have been wanting the wider columns. I like the bolts too.
ReplyDeleteI like the wider columns. I haven't read all of the update things - it has always bugged me how skinny the columns are on my blog. I must go see if I can go switch it! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteFor whatever reason, it does not scroll smoothly or load quickly for me.
ReplyDeleteI have 2 gig of RAM and other websites, including flash heavy ones, load ok.
Not sure what is going on with blogger.
It doesn't scroll easily for me too but I like it though.
ReplyDeleteI will try it on my blog
more on this later
I like the wider columns. On my blog, I edited my template to make my main column 650px wide. I find the page layout more pleasing that way. I can put three images across the main column. I had to learn a little about css and xtml to do this, but it really wasn't difficult. I also learned a cool trick to make images pop up and expand when you mouse over them. I love how easy it is to learn new things with the internet. Kay, your blog with all of your detailed images and tutorials would definitely benefit from a wider main column. I always enjoy your content.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't really matter does it? As long as you keep writing, I'll keep reading since your work seems to be providing inspiration for me...
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great blog, narrow columns and all.
I do like the wider columns.
ReplyDeleteI really like the wider columns and love your blog. I am not fond, however, of the background bolts of fabric. To me they are too busy and distracting especially when the scrolling down and the words are moving over them.
ReplyDeleteI love your new format! As others have pointed out, the lighter green text is not easy to read --- perhaps a darker color? I like the background and the wider columns.
ReplyDeleteI like the new wider columns! And I even like the bolts in the background...I think its kinda kewl!
