A new look
This morning I happened to look at Journeyer’s Chronicles on another computer using a different browser to mine. What I though was a nicely formatted theme was all higgeldy-piddeldy on the other computer. 
Aaarrrgh! So guess what I’ve been doing all day? Tweaking, learning and tweaking again.
The result is the blog theme you’re now looking at. I’ve checked it in two PC’s and I think this one is more universal than the last one. There is still a little bit of work to go, but I’ve got the bulk of it done. I really liked the colours in my previous theme, so I’ve tried to replicate them in the new one. Fingers crossed it will all work without a hitch and I don’t have to do too much more.
I am still yet to tinker with my header etc when I changed theme a month ago! Like you I had intended to incorporate some of the feel from my last blog (the dots) onto the new look. I will hopefully tackle it on the long weekend.
The colours are very calm.

This one looks good too.

June 3rd, 2008 at 11:33 pmThe new theme looks great (and the old one did too). I use Firefox which tends to have a lot more problems than IE, and I always forget to test in IE! Good luck with the the rest of your tweaking - it can get addictive!

June 3rd, 2008 at 11:58 pmThanks everyone. I use Firefox as well. It all fell to pieces in IE though. I wasn’t sure if it was a browser or a Mac v Windows problem. Seems like it was browser related. I think I’m happy with the new look. It was all starting to look a bit wacky at 11pm last night
Trish - I really liked the header initially too. But after looking at it for a few weeks, it started to annoy me that it took up about 1/2 the page and I had to scroll down to see any content. That’s why I chose a smaller header this time.
PlanningQueen - I liked your dots. I think that’s what prompted me to stop at your site when I first found it.
Guera - I noticed you’re doing some tweaking as well. You’re right, once you start…
