Under construction

Please excuse the mess as BIG changes take place here at The Great Umbrella Heist. How many readers out there actually look at the sidebars of blogs they read? I know that I don't. After seeing how fantastic large photos look on blogs, I decided to change up my blog so I can post this

july8z

instead of this

july8z

(I hope this works.)

I still need to add pages for all the important info (like About Me) and I'm not in love with that blog header but it will have to do for now. A web designer I am not.

What do you think?

LOVE the new look!!!!! So glad to see you are making this change.

The edge of your photos are getting cropped off a bit in my window. I can see it all, but have to scroll a little from left to right. You might see if they are bigger than 900 pixels wide.

LOVE IT!!!!! YEAH!!!

LOVE IT! Except for the blog header..not so thrilled about it, but then again I LOVVED that photo you had up on the last blog header. Something about it I just found so genuinely cute! I think because it was different. Anyway, LOVE your blog and glad to see you are making changes. Keep up the good work!

Changes are so fun. When I feel the need to rearrange furniture or buy something new, I change the blog design. It works for a while! ;)
Love the bigger pictures...pure cuteness even larger!!

To be honest, I normally just read in reader, but I clicked through and it looks great!

Love it! It looks great.

Colleen said...

I like it! I did have to scroll a tad but then realized my page was zoomed in. When I zoomed out it worked well. But I DO like seeing the blog roll! Maybe you could put that in another tab or on your About Me section?

Love it! Can't wait to see all of the changes. :)

Sarah said...

Thanks, everyone!!!

Meh - I'll have to deal with the header later and while technically my photos a just barely too wide for the blog, the blog could be wider. I'm just using a generic one. But it works for now.

Lisa said...

I love seeing the big photos!

Jennifer said...

Looks great! Photos that nice, big size work well on my home computer, which is what counts. My blog is the same way, and it does require scrolling on both laptops and the computers where I work. Worth the trade-off in my book.

Love it! Think the header could be bigger (well bigger pics anyway) but overall, love it!

Kayla said...

I am LOVING the new look. what a difference the size of the picture makes. Awesome!

Angela said...

I like the fact that I can see a larger picture without having to click on it! Very nice!

If you'd like for me to make you a header, please let me know. :-)
