Regular readers of my blog who visit the site (not just subscribe to the RSS) will have noticed over time, since I made this theme and released it on June 3rd 2008, my blog slowly changing and looking more sleek and refined. I’ve literally just finished the comments CSS, so comments are nicely boxed up and styled, rather than the basic numbered list. Also, people might’ve noticed the sidebar suddenly shifting to the left. As Sii says, the posts being below the search box makes more contextual sense as well. I also recently added a shiny RSS icon, made by Jay Hilgert. Looking at the picture to the left (it’s the only one I have unfortunately so it’s a bit low-res), you can see how much it’s changed.
And thinking about it, how much I’ve changed as well! I’ve been dabbling an awful lot more in trying to make things XHTML compliant and using CSS in the proper fashion recently, and after a bit of modification to the Picasa widget, my page is fully XHTML 1.0 Transitional valid. I’ve not bothered making it strict yet, as generally widgets made by other people take a lot of work to make them strict. In fact, up until Matched.co.uk went under, my pages have been non-compliant due to non-compliant Matched.co.uk ad code.
And last, but most certainly not least, the biggest change is of course the pregnancy, which is coming along swimmingly by the way!
