There are going to be some changes going on around here, so don’t get used to anything…
Following the creation of my new website, I have decided that I’m gonna make some changes to the look of my blog. They’ll come slowly, but surely. The most important thing is that if you do not like a change I have made, you must let me know, for there is a deeper moral to this story:
Often when designers, engineers, inventors, etc. make a creation, they are absolutely blind to the negative aspects of their systems. It is soooo easy to get married to one of your ideas, which causes a honeymoon effect where you can see no wrong with it. The moment someone points out a fault in the system, one of two things happens:
- The designer takes the criticism personally, and is upset by the critic
- The designer realizes the critic is right, and quickly reiterates the design of the system so that it fixes the faults.
I hope to be this second type of designer. If you don’t like something, call me on it. If I get enough complaints, or I agree with the original comment, I will make changes. Critics are often too polite in their assessments, I ask you not to be so.
For starters, what do you think of the new background color, off to the sides of the screen? Critique me! 🙂
One response to “Changes…”
okay, so now everything is BLACK. dark and BLACK. ya, i think you get my point. if not, let me spell it out for you: it’s too dark and gloomy here now. I liked the redish color of your blog, it made it very homey. Also, your website gives off the same dark feelings. That original light blue color was very nice, very inviting. So, the moral of the story is, brighter and lighter colors make tami happy. dark colors make her sad and cold and bleh. that’s right, bleh. but hey, atleast you got rid of the orange. 🙂
