A New Look for the Blog

I've been tinkering a bit with the blog recently, and thinking of a few new things I can do.

Welcome to the start of the new layout. I want the blog to look nice and clean, with the posts continuing as the primary focus, but with the added potential to do some other things. These other things will include a little bit of advertising, and the ability to better promote the miniature based activities of my friends "in the business". 

The first incarnation of this is new approach is exemplified by the Kickstarter project being run by long-term friend of the blog, Nick Baran. I invite you to click on the image at the top of the sidebars to the right and see what his very cool new miniatures boardgame - Broken Contract - is all about.


Stay tuned for more tweaks, and feel free to leave you thoughts and/or suggestions in the comments below.

Cheers
Dave

      Simple and elegant, just like the man himself!
      I like the layout, more information presented better. Keep on tweaking.

    Nice new look, clean and easy to navigate. :)

    I'm still fiddling with settings on my blog at the moment. Not quite sure how I want it to look or how I want it to be organised at the moment.

      I ran with pretty much the same look for years, so making changes can be a big thing. Take your time ; )

    I like it! I'm very much in the "clean and simple layout" camp - heck, you've seen how spartan mine is. :)

    Thanks so much for featuring my Kickstarter Dave! Much appreciated. :)

    I like the new look. It was a shock at first, but it is nice and clean for sure.

    Thanks again!

    I really like the new layout of the Blog, Dave - it looks fantastic :-) I typically use an RSS app to read blog updates but I think in this case, I'll keep coming back to the site!

      It feels so fancy in here. Do I need to wear a blazer? :)

      Yes, yes YOU do. Everyone else can wear whatever, but you must have a blazer. ; )

    Looks good Dave. I think it was wise to lose the black. Keep things fresh and clean. Cheers!
