Whew!

Whew! Setting up my new blog layout took for-EVER! I've been dragging my feet about it for months for the very reason that I knew it would take too long to set it up. Well, finally it's done. Thanks to my sister-in-law, Jenny, for the awesome new header that she designed for me!

While I gather my wits about me after pulling my hair out due to wrangling with code that I don't really understand, here's a photo for you to mull over. Who might this mystery bird be?

Gimme your best guess in the comments. I promise I'll be back with something more substantial soon!

Under construction

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I'm in the process of changing my template. This is definitely the layout I want, but I'm not entirely sure about the colors and how the header might change. Things may morph a little more over the next few weeks.... or maybe not, we'll see.

I would appreciate any feedback that you all might have, especially regarding the speed at which images load, as they might start getting larger. Do the images stand out okay against the dark background? And what about the text - is it overpowered by the images or the width of the post side of the blog? Comments are welcome.
