After many more evenings and sleepless nights I’m actually very excited to introduce a new version of the blog design.
As you can see I’ve reused several elements from the design that I have decided to scrap, but everything else is brand new. I for one am very happy with the end result. It’s a far superior product compared to the one that I decided not to use.
I would very much like to hear your opinions about this. Things you like, things you don’t like, compliments and constructive criticism, if you notice some glitches or problems. Everything is welcome. I hope you’ll take a couple of moments and leave a comment.
On the tech side of things I want to say that this is my first site with no tables. Everything is done through CSS. Firefox is a great browser, and if you’re not using it yet, you should switch. IE on the other hand took hours upon hours to get right. Also not a single pixel was “borrowed” from somebody, 100% of work was done by me.
Anyhow, as I said, I’m very happy with the end result and I’m waiting for your comments!

Hey man! Congrats with release, looks pretty neat!

Thanks, I tried.
Try turning off CSS. Or click on the photo of Alena and I on the top.

New design looks really nice. I like it.
I see that you have discarded Snapple and replaced it with can
October 19, 2007 @ 12:35
Wow, какие люди!
Yeah, people didn’t understand why Snapple was there Geoff mentioned that somebody’s brand was too prominently shown next to our own logo.
The can is that of a Red Bull. Much cooler then Snapple.

You discarded a Snapple bottle?! NooooooooOOOo!
Nice touch on the comment boxes. Very cool.

Makes me wonder… what if the number of comments shoots over 99999999? Well, only one way to find out.
October 19, 2007 @ 12:38
Yeah, not going to happen!
By the way, this comment design was what made me discard the first attempt. It came out too cool looking, and everything else started looking “not so hot”.

Beautiful design work! I plan to steal it all for my upcoming site Katzylvania.com and take credit for it, hope you don’t mind.

Not at all, you can have all HTML code. As long as you leave the CSS alone.
October 19, 2007 @ 14:27
Well, I think that I should chime in too.
I already told Danya - I really like the design. My husband makes me proud.
