Blog Redesign!
As you can see, I've refreshed the design of the blog a bit using one of the styles from The Style Contest; I changed the colors in the image and CSS to reflect my favorite color, purple. There are still a few kinks that I need to work out, such as the comments page, for example.
But all in all this should make the blog more readable and cleaner. I love judicious use of white space and readable text - it makes for more pleasant experience when surfing the blogs, while at the same time reflecting the personality of the blogger. Let me know how you like the new look, if you think the text needs to be bigger, and so forth.
When I reach a good stopping place, I'll put up notes of how I did the redesign. It's really very simple (hint - set up another blog to experiment with the new look before you switch over).

Very pretty!
I love the clean and simple look. You're right, it makes for a much easier read. Purple is one of my favorites too.
This is nice, Lola!
It's very nice indeed! And definately easier to read.
Popping out of lurkdom to say I love the purple and it is much easier to read.
Good job!

I think everything looks great! And I like how your comment page shows the post up above...the type face is just the right size (and style) for me...nice job! I wish I were brave enough to try a "refresh"...
