So I’ve been working on a new theme for the blog which I’m going to launch in the next coming months but just a few months ago I was like you know what? I could probably introduce some of the new changes to the current theme and it will take me less than an hour of work. So I did just that.
The slightly modified changes are:
– a light grey backdrop with a soft shadow behind the white page to give it a raised feel
– a wider space for my posts which means I can now have larger pictures and videos
– new sharing icons at the bottom of the post for facebook, twitter and google
– clearer section tabs under the main header

Clean! Looks good
*Whistles*
everything looks great other than the main header. something off with it.
Can u send me a screenshot using my contact form?
what color was it 2 hours ago lol ?
been reading for years and dont remember now LOL
kinda prefer old one,had the “mysterious look”
lol at “mysterious look”
Mishal check 248pm it still has the “old” style.
or the events section since it uses same color scheme.
Great improvements, except for the section tabs under the header, the buttons are big and not so much text in it, annoyingly empty.
Yeah my brother was just telling me the same thing. I’ll leave it for now to settle in and i’ll take another look at it next week and see how I feel about it then.
Looks good. Always need some change to keep things looking fresh.
really nice to see small improvents on the blog, looks a bit better too!
Overall the redesign looks nice…
The header font doesn’t look crisp enough…some rounded font might be of help?
I think you 4got the news section
No i removed it since it wasn’t working as it should have. gonna replace it with another section.
Mark your app does not work on IOS 7.0.3. Its time you get it fixed.
I was working on it and got stuck now waiting on support
Nice modifications to the original Gridfocus theme from https://5thirtyone.com/ – shame they stopped supporting it, they had some nice other ones too.
Yeah that’s why I’m moving to a new theme next year
Hi Mark,
With al honesty, I don’t care what your new website ail look like, all I care about is SUBSTANCE, which you always have, so I will always read your blog. Good Luck.
maybe you should get a like button too..!
Any chance of removing the pink / magenta header color ?
I’m sure if you change the color to some thing else could spike up your traffic during office working hours.
Hehehe no, that would be like asking coca cola to stop using red 😀
haha! exactly that pink is so NSFW.
