Tweaking, but not quite a live re-design

I’ve noticed a lot recently that many bloggers are giving their sites a live re-design. As prompted by my recent post Why Blog? I went back to a stock K2 install. I’ve since made a few tweaks and plan to make many more, it occured to me that it might look like I had joined in this recent trend. To some extent I suppose I have, but it wasn’t an intentional decision, I’m more interested in finding the purpose of my blog, and for me part of that has to be reflected in the design. As a result I’m tweaking my stock K2 install as I go along. I’ve made a couple but they were mainly because I wanted to give my blog at least some form of identity in the mean time.

It’s coming along nicely, I like it!

Thanks Nick. Still a long way to go as yet I feel. hope you are settling into your new theme, Ben certainly did a good job with it.

[...] I know, I said it wouldn’t be but it seems to have turned into one. I spent a bit of time having a break from uni work mocking up the homepage and I’m really happy with it. I won’t show you what it will look like, but I have a feeling I may have finally settled on a piece of design for my blog that I like and can code myself. It will be based on K2 and will be a little more sympathetic compared to the current tweaks I made to K2, so keep your eyes out, it will be small changes as I don’t have a lot of time at the moment, but it will happen.

I think my site has been in a perpetual live redesign ever since I started it.

Shawn: I think my site is probably not far off being in perpetual redesign as well.
