It’s a year now since I first started blogging, so I felt it was more than time to move away from one of the Wordpress standard templates - so here is my new and more customised design! I’d always found the single column of text down the middle of the page, leaving lots of space at the sides of the page, somewhat strange, so I’ve ensured that I now use it all with most of the page used for text, as well as various other new features. Several friends I’ve talked about my blog too have said they struggle to catch up with websites but if you could sign up to receive blogposts by email then they’d do that, and there is now the chance to do that in the sidebar on the right hand side.

I’ve also used the opportunity to link up the design of the blog page with the other pages on the site (and put the whole lot into Wordpress, saying goodbye to my old friend MovableType).

With a little help I’ve come up with a design I’m pleased with and I hope you like it.
