Martin and Wille are safely tucked away in the south of Sweden as I embark on making some changes to the look of my blog. I say safely because as with all DIY there is some cursing and pulling of hair involved. Nothing is as frustrating as when you want something to work and it doesn't. I'm at that stage now with some issues.
Anyways, I've been wanting to do some changes to the look of Chez Larsson for a while now. I even considered having a pro look at it because I'm so not a web designer but since I can't find what I want I'm back to DIY. Don't worry, I'm not changing the concept of my blog I'm just doing some spring cleaning. It is after Christmas so it must be spring, right?!
So while I'm trying to take photos in virtually no daylight (new banner may be coming up) and getting my head around some mysterious code and photoshop prickle I'd love to hear if you have any requests or ideas on how I can make the blog look and work better.
I feel there's a little bit much going on in the sidebars and I'd like to bunch things up in nice little packages to hopefully make the site easier to navigate and for you to find earlier posts and relevant info quicker than today.
Should I for instance add a nav bar at the top with tabs for some of the stuff that's in the sidebar today? Any simple but cool looking fonts I should know about? Also I'd love to get my hands on a good (looking) search button so if you have a source for one I'm all ears. Actually I'm all ears concerning anything you think might enhance the blog.
So while I'm working away over here I'll leave you with some link love.
