oops! bye-bye old design

For a number of months I've been thinking about changing my blog design and since I have some time on my hands I thought I'd play around this morning. Well, I'm not that familiar with the new typepad beta, especially in the design area and apparently I deleted my old design. I'm sad that I don't have it saved some where but I guess it was really time to move on. Thankfully I did have the old version still open in my browser so I was able to capture a picture of it.

My thought with this new design is that I'll update the header picture occasionally using an image that perhaps reveals something about me. What do you think?

This is a test

  ahhh...fall

I'm testing out the "blog this" feature on flickr to see how it all works. It seems using the flickr "blog this" method for posting to my blog will be quite easy and efficient...we shall see.

Ok, so here are my thoughts on how this all worked. It was extremely easy!!  But I think you're only allowed to use 1 picture, though I could just not know enough at this point and perhaps I can use more than one.  Flickr automatically includes the flickr picture title, which is nice and it also adds who it was uploaded by, which I may take out in typepad editing.  I will definitely try this again!

Changing Things Up

So I've been playing with my blog layout for the past hour and a half. Changing the header...changing the colors...adding a border...taking the border away...changing the hot link color...oh, maybe it should be another color.  I'm sure you get the picture. My head is spinning, so I'm going to sit with this design overnight and see how I feel in the morning.  More soon...
