A Change of Coat, From Green to Gold to Black

And I'm back...

So what do you think of the new place?

I was thinking that I needed a change of face so I decided to look for a new template. Nothing grand, just a little color (or maybe too much). And a few modifications, one courtesy of jp.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to figure out where or how to re-install the Haloscan comment system so until I find out, I'm turning on the blogger built-in comment system for people to use.

(Though from zero to two, as I now have a redundant link system. Anyone know why or is that from the Haloscan?)

P.S. Yes, I know the picture looks creepy...

I like this layout, better on the eyes.

Pretty spiffy new set up here! I'm too afraid to try it on mine lest I mess up the whole thing. But cat's always have it under control, don't they? ;)

aa: Hehe thanks. I figure you know... black... cat... black... cat... er, never mind. ;-)

dodo: More like evidence of nothing better do do. x-)

robb: Really? Thanks. :-) I would have thought people would prefer black on white rather the opposite but I know what you mean though.

livewire: Heehee thanks! I always regard changing templates a step-by-step experimentation, like building a house of cards. Fortunately, it hasn't collapsed on me yet despite the fact that us cats don't have fingers. ;-)

banzai cat said...

Haha! My model thanks you! ;-)

windi said...

Actually, white on black works better on comp screens than it does in print, so it's good. Looks neat, good one.

Oh wow! Black is the best... but that creepy cat, paw a-waving, man, that's something else ;)

banzai cat said...

jenn see: Hahaha! That's great, black cat in Japanese? I should collect these titles. :-D

And thanks for the kind words. :-)

windi: Wow! Is that really you? Welcome! I didn't know you were doing the online thing though I shouldn't have been surprised. Will do the same. :-)

jp: It does, doesn't it? ;-) I also figured white on black looks striking. Likewise, I took what you said and moved down the links section a bit. Thanks again!

ayen: Hehe sorry about that. Though I can always say the fur is still flying around here. *cough cough*

dean: Thanks man. :-) Hey, here's hoping we can see your new collection soon!

Creepy is an understatement. Make it stop!

Nice makeover, banzai. Orange is a color that looks good on you. Hehe.

windi said...

No, it's not really me. It's this evil, neurotic psycopath who's been going around the internet and impersonating me. Be careful, she does a very good job. You can hardly tell the diff. Hehehehe. Yeah, I've been blogging on and off. Not nearly anywhere as prolific as you :) Somehow I get tied up too much in chatting. YM is and EVIL thing.
Send me a text btw coz I lost my phone AGAIN and am rebuilding my contact list AGAIN. Number's the same, the one thing I've managed to actually keep.
Love browsing through your archives :)

banzai cat said...

jay: I don't know how! :-D

bee: Hehe thanks though doesn't orange me look fat? Look at Garfield! ;-)

windi: Eeek! Not the archives?!? Still, that's what I get for having a job that has 24-hour internet access! ;-)

White text over black is always hard to read, especially when one is tackling a lengthy text. I implore you to go back to light backgrounds.

banzai cat said...

Sheesh. Obviously, this post is redundant since I had to change the bloody template again. Unfortunately, the server holding the templates where I got mine exceeded its bandwidth. A friend of mine who also got his (a different one) from the same source experienced the same problem. So am back to black text on white. But it's not so bad, isn't it?
