A New Blog Look for 2013

We kicked off 2012 with a new blog look:
And not that we want to make it an annual thing–we really, really don’t–but we just weren’t feeling all the pillows against the purple wall anymore–in our house or as our header.  So, we just overhauled the whole thing.  Sounds just like us, right?

We bought the template from Blog Milk and then Chris customized the heck out of it until it fit our needs and wants.  The truth is, things are still pretty rough around the edges and there are a lot of elements that we still want to add over the next couple days, but there is one thing we subtracted–the Disqus commenting system.  In our poll we took a little while ago, a lot of you said you had trouble finding the comments section and some of you flat out didn’t like Disqus.  We weren’t attached to that system, so we took time to convert all of our comments back over to blogger (although the threads are still a little wonky) and you can now access the commenting widget at the top of every post by clicking the number in the circle and/or a text link at the bottom of every post.  We aim to please.

Update: If you would like to leave a comment with your name linking back to your blog or site’s page, choose the “Name/URL” option in the commenting form dropdown menu.

Happy New Year, e’erbody. I feel like this is the fresh start I have been needing and can’t wait to dive back into blogging after an extended break visiting family.  It’s good to be back.

How was your holiday!?

  1. Looks great. I love the new pic of you and Chris on the sidebar. Also so glad you did away with Discus, so much easier to comment now.

  2. I love it!!! It definitely seems more representative of who you guys are. And I have to say, I’m glad that the Discus commenting is turfed too… I always seemed to have trouble with it! Yay, love your fresh new look :)
