Changing Things Up

Well, I did it. For weeks I've been tempted to change things up on my blog, but each time I made drastic changes, I chickened out and hit "clear edits." Finally, tonight I got brave and I did it. Have any of you fellow bloggers out there ever become bored with your blog design? And if so, did you wait it out, or mix things up? 

Like every other design project I've ever undertaken in my life, this one had approximately 6, 347 revisions. I've managed to get to the point where I've lost all objectivity, so I need your help. What do you think of this new design? Is it:

Boring? ("Zzzzzzzzz...")

 Confusing? ("Now why did she go and do that?")

Or a happy improvement? ("Yaaaaay for change!")

    I like it. I think it's well organised and the black and white photos in the header are very very very cool.

    Love and licks, Winnie

    Oh, I'm a big chicken when it comes to making changes on the computer with no "back" button. Good for you Brenda. I love the header with all of your friends there welcoming us. It looks fantastic.

    Thanks for the feedback, guess I'll stick with the new look for now! I was tempted to try one of those new dynamic view templates that blogger is pushing, but I'm not convinced they'll be as easy for visitors to navigate. Perhaps I'll wait till one of you "go dynamic" and try it out that way! :)
