How do you like the new look?

At last I have a new look for this blog! I had wanted to change it for ages, but I absolutely hate messing round with HTML code and all that bollocks.

So when chica-x was offering to skin ten people over on the BC discussions board, I jumped on board. I thought I was signing up to torture people when she mentioned skinning people, but instead it meant she was going to make my blogs look nice.

I was over the moon when she did the Doodle Week blog, but then she decided to do this one as well! All she needed to know was what colours I liked, how many columns I wanted and what images to use. I hmmmmmed and ermmmmed for a while, then said how about looking in my flickr selection, yes I am helpful (not). So the background is some of my photographs, but the legs and pen pot are chicas work, I particularly love the legs, seen here in more detail.


The only thing I really said to chica was create something that sums up by blog and I think she got it spot on. I love love love everything about it, including the navbar so that I can finally have a link to an 'about me' page.

In the future she is going to do some before and after shots, so that will show how much of an improvement she has made to this little blog of mine.

I warned her that this may be a vomit inducing post, involving lots of praise and arse kissing. So here is a brief run down of her own blogs, damn this girl is creative! Each template is fantastic and proves that even on blogger/blogspot you can have beautiful templates. Well if you are talented enough to do it yourself or get someone to do it for you.

I'm just a blogger This is her more personal blog full of funny moments and some rude stuff.
Photo Projectz Prepare to get photographically challenged, chica really pushes you to photograph interesting unusual things.
Dear Chica forget Dear Abby, Dear Chica is a hoot. You may not get the advice you want or need, but it sure is funny. She needs some submissiond people, go over there now!


Chica-x = Taking the fugly out of Blogger Templates.
