After many months of procrastination, I finally decided to go ahead and radically change the look of my blog. I have always wanted the links column on the left-hand side of the page, but I have been using a template using CSS (cascading style sheet) coding that I did not fully understand, so I could not change it.
I finally had the time to go through all the code on my blog's templates, finding all the nuances that make it look as it does, then I changed them to my liking. There are still tweaks to be made, but I think I'll be able to make them soon enough. I liked the look of the reflection on the logo that I did on my iWeb test website, and I decided to use the new logo I designed as well (the cross is actually a letter 't' with the bottom part edited off from one of my fonts).
I will try to make the site even better, and I am open to any suggestions you may have; just leave a comment here, and I'll see what I can do!
(To all geeks out there: My blog, and most of my other sites, are now almost all XHTML 1.0 Transitional compliant. I still have some cross-browser issues (most notably with IE) with some elements of my sites, though...).
