Pet Sounds

Today was another gorgeous day… Plus in the space of 5 days, all the trees have literally burst into bloom, back in Scotland it’s barely above freezing and forecast for rain as far as the eye will see. Homesick? Me? Never… Right now it’s as hot as most Scottish summers get, and it’s only March, Jealous? You should be…

So this is another redesign, and straight off I’m gonna say it’s HEAVILY inspired by both Michael Hanscom‘s and Simon Dodson‘s sites respectively… I like it, I’ve just been lacking in creativity for so long now. So many projects have been sitting on the back-burner, like my portfolio site, though I’m quite happy with my current job of content management with a little graphical work here and there. Desigining individual sites is a big no-no now, my last job of churning out 3 shitty sites a day burned me out I think.

But back to the matter at hand, today the pets were SO cute, Linus snuggling up to Woody and 3 cats hanging out…

Plus there is this nice picture of Charlie and Woody tangled up on the couch.

    Loving the new look, it’s really classy. The weather has been pretty good for UK standards so far this year. :)

    The new look is cool. The header graphics are nice. Looks suspiciously like weberika …. hmmm. :D j/k

    But I liked the pop-up window for comments. How come you got rid of it?

    Thanks guys

    re: commment popup windows

    Blog aggregators use the extended url’s specified within the rss or rdf feeds, which leads to a page with the post and the comments listed underneath, it’s easier to use this system as you just throw the code for the comments under the post.

    The popup window requires a whole seperate template and I was too lazy to spend time making one that suited this design. I may return to popups later or I may stick with this, but for the meantime, if it ain’t broken…
