Messing with the template again
2008-09-17Yes, I’ve changed the blog template again. People complained that the previous template wasn’t “dark and quiet” enough. So I’m experimenting.
Thoughts?

A Dark And Quiet RoomJust a quiet corner of the Net where I will come to sit and think and write. Maybe you will find that I have something worthwhile to say.

This is a major improvement on the ‘dark and quiet’ front. I’m not sure the background pattern is quite ideal, but overall I’ll give it a seven out of ten.
Boy, it’s really messed uplooking at it at my work computer.
Maybe it will look better when I get home.
I likey.
it’s “Dark and quiet” in a “fancy a cup o tea, old chap?” kinda way.
It’s clear and readable (important indeed!), but if you want to evoke the feelings of a contemplative space you might need to change your font, or have less information. All the lists still make it a busy space.
But with that aside, I like that it’s easy to read and navigate.
It’s much better than before. I agree that there are some things that could be tweaked further (ex: font), but this isn’t absolutely necessary…not like when you turned your blog pink. I like the fact that it’s darker and more brooding. Yeah, I need Prozac.
I don’t care for the swirly bits in the background. They’re just not *you.* The dark feel is nice, but I agree that it’s a bit too cluttered on the sides. The contrasting blue is quite lovely, though.
