Evolve
This blog is having a makeover. From the default templates available from Blogger, I'm trying to make a custom template. I've based the current look from one available in Blogskins.com.
I've tweaked a bit, cleaned up some of the CSS, but this still needs a lot of work. First of all, I really don't like the color scheme. This is just something I work with to get things started. Although the title of this blog denotes the rants and raves, I don't want it to be doom and gloom. Later on, I'll firm up on a cheery color scheme.
Secondly, the tables. As much as possible, I want to follow the current web standards, refraining from using table layouts. The basic layout is okay: a sidebar and the main body. I'll be adding images later, to enhance the site. Blogger does not allow the local storage of images so I have to find server space for the images. Right now, I'm walking through the CSS Zen Garden for, uh, enlightenment.
I'm still trying to get a grip on Blogger syntax and its data objects. Next time, I'll get it down pat. Seems pretty straightforward, once I've seen a couple of templates.
As I've said, I'm going to beef up this site. Of course, content will always be king. Watch this space.
