So Whatdoyathink of the New Digs?

The header graphic is by Kate Baker, and it is teh hawsome. The theme is my standby, dkret3, which I love, especially for it’s ability to arrange the widgets on the side like it does.

I like it, and I think I’ll stick with it for a while. There may be some minor adjustments, but I think it rocks. How ’bout you?

Spiffy digs, dude.

The columns on the right are a bit too busy for my test, but that may be because I’m not yet used to them…

I’m not sold on the arrangement, but I like the way this theme handles the two columns on the right more than my last theme. I think it looks more “clean”.

I really like that I can have my “medicine” widget span both columns…

Love the header, I think I see the appeal of the columns. Time will tell.

I approve of Tux’s presence on your mind, so to speak, in the header. But I also agree with Janiece that the columns are, I dunno, sort of cramped. But overall it’s a really nice look. Kudos.

I, too, love the header. Well done, Kate! I have a texty two-column right side, so it works for me - but I can understand how some folks might find it busy, too.

Nice re-do! I’m working on one too. :P

It’s not bad, the header brightens up the whole site which is nice.

Love the new digs Shawn…I brought you a housewarming present…
(hands Shawn a 6 of Guinness.)

I think the wordy-ness of the side is just something that takes getting used to. (nice job on the header Kate!)

I love the new header. I agree with Rainbows — it’s much brighter and more cheerful and more in keeping with the tone of the blog (despite your occasional rants ;)

I love the new design and especially the header. But as I note over on my blog, beware of exploding penguins!

I think this is the coolest header ever. I’m not use to feeling jealousy on this level. Darn you Shawn P0wers!
