identity crisis

I know I know. I keep changing the look of this blog on you, and I do apologize if it's disconcerting. Whilst I would love to hire someone who actually is a skilled graphic artist and has some sort of design sense, it's not in my budget, so I keep playing around with my amateur programs (namely, Microsoft Publisher and Paint, the basic no frills versions) to come up with a design I like.

And so, the changes keep coming until I come up with something that sticks. Or until I make so much money I can hire cool web designers. Like these folks.

So bear with me! I'm getting closer.... Just a wee bit more fiddling with this dang computer.

  2. You are so funny. That happened to me when I started my blog, every week I would change everything until I found someone that I could afford. You are so popular and you have one of the best blogs out there, so keep changing, we still be here.

  9. Hey!
    I am a regular reader of the blog and a TOTAL Publisher lover. My lectures wouldn't be too pleased with me to hear that though!

    If you ever wanted to enlist the services of a junior designer please let me know! I am only a degree student so I'm not uber-amazing-fantastic but would be happy to play around with you for fun!
