Honestly, What do You Think
By JLP | December 14, 2005
As you can tell, I’m still not happy with the way my blog looks. I’m probably driving some of you nuts with all my changes.
Well, I think I have finally found something I like. I just have one more thing I want to fix and then I think I’ll be done changing this blog’s appearance for A LONG TIME! I had to add some color. The blog was starting to look a little depressing. So, I thought blue was optimistic-looking and powerful and added it to the header and sidebars.
The only thing that I have left to change is the post titles. I would like them to match the blue on the rest of the page. The problem is I can’t figure out which part of the template the titles are. I emailed Mike Little, the creator of this template. We’ll see if he has the answer.

they’re H3, class=”storytitle”
Look in your CSS file for
.storyTitle {
font: bold 14px georgia, georgia, georgia, sans-serif;
margin: 0px 0px 5px 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
Alter that and your titles should change.

fyi,to change the color just add:
color: #2B547E;
and you should be golden. you may want to make the text size of the title a little larger, up to you.

I really like your blog. First visit for me but I am very impressed with what you are doing.
I actually started a very “crude” blog several years ago but did not know what I was doing and could not
envision how to make money. I don’t believe at that time the word “blog” had been coined.
I am a CPA and think that it would be fun to do. Any suggestions as I starting from ground
zero.
Too bad I have to go to work today as I would like to spend more time looking at your blog.
Congratulations on what you have achieved.
Best Wishes for a Healthy Holiday Season.

Hey,
the blog looks good! I know I’m constantly tinkering with mine, never happy, so I understand how you feel… :>

It is looking good! One problem I see with the new layout is if you don’t have your web browser open to full screen, the center column is overlapping with the right column.

Neo,
Thanks for pointing that out. It must be my divider that I inserted. I don’t know how to fix it other than making it shorter. Surely, there’s a way to fix it right.

I like it. The only (very) minor change I would suggest would to be to use a more muted blue for the links, titles, etc. The bright blue that you are using doesn’t fit with the blue backgrounds as well as it could.
