Rockin' a New Layout

If you guys were wondering, "Hey. Why hasn't Taylor updated his site in the past two days?" Then let me tell you why. I had to create a new layout for Video Blogging Tips. I know, right? I just had a sweet layout so why would I have to create a new one? Let's just say that my original layout had some major flaws.

IE and Firefox Errors

What looked good in IE didn't look good in Firefox. What looked good in Firefox didn't look good in IE. You all know how it goes, you fix something for Firefox and then you always have to go and fix it back for IE. However, for some reason, I just couldn't get the look IE and Firefox to match up.

Cramming was a problem

With my old layout, there wasn't much room for the subscription area in the header. The "Subscribe in a Reader" area was snugged way too close to the "Enter your email address" area and I believe this may have caused some problems. Not to mention the well-known fact that my header was full of way too many goodies as it was any way.

Positives of the New Layout

Besides the fact that it now has a great advertising spot up on it, it also is easier to follow, less crowded, and overall it's more enjoyable. Now, it's not done quite yet. I think I could still make a few more tweaks. For instance, the banner could be a little improved and also, I am not completely confident in the left sidebar background color. We'll see how things go in the days to come.
