I just wanted to give you all a heads up that I plan on redesigning my website. I actually like the current look and layout pretty well, but this is more of a technical need for me. For the more technically inclined, I use Drupal as my platform, but I just haven’t had the time or technical know-how to address things that aren’t exactly working well on my blog. I plan to move to WordPress which is an easier blogging system to use (and recently much improved with their 2.5 2.6 version), and should provide me with as much capability that I’ve been utilizing with Drupal, but in a simpler way.
Even though I like my design pretty well, I am also taking this as an opportunity to refresh it and make it more user friendly for you. Hopefully more visually appetizing (pun intended), too.
Just know that this change will likely not be too immediate because I usually do this sort of thing on my own with some assistance from my husband. Depending on how much time and knowledge I have (especially when transferring posts and comments over from Drupal to WordPress), it may take a few days or a few weeks (although my husband promises me that he’ll be on hand to do some of the more complicated things). I think I’ve settled on a base theme, so the making-it-pretty shouldn’t be too complicated, but the technical stuff will take a bit more brainpower.
Now on to the good stuff.
With the new design, I’ve only now just decided (yes, this very moment!) that I’ll be doing a giveaway of some kind for one lucky winner. More details will be forthcoming post-redesign once I’ve figured out all the, well, details.
Wish me luck!
