Everything

♥

So here I am with a few snazzy looking images that took me about fifteen minutes to throw together with some old fractals, and a CSS stylesheet that I’ve been working on since roughly 4:45 A.M.

(The time is now 8:30 A.M., or thereabouts.)

It occurs to me that I should make a list of things I want to change and come back to it later. For those of you who are seeing this blog in its tacky-looking form, I apologize. Since there’s only so much a gal can do without driving herself gibbering insane, I’ll quit the hand-wringing and give The List:

1. Change my blog title text so that it’s not in Palatino Linotype. It seems the only way to do this short of completely disemboweling my CSS is to change my blog body’s text so that it’s also not in Palatino Linotype, which is not what I want. Right now my priority is making the body look nice, so the title will continue to look bad until I can figure out how to make it work (assuming there’s a way to do this).

2. Fix the title, category, comment, and archive links so that they’re not fruity colors and they’re not underlined. I’ll be making those a nice, neutral black with no further styling if I can.

3. Add some widgets, or something, to the sidebar. Because that area’s looking a bit lonely and lopsided.

4. Speaking of widgets, add a bit to that tag cloud so that it looks less pathetic.

5. Come up with a title that puts every other blog I’ve read to shame while simultaneously making me lunch and saving the world.

If you can’t tell, I’m not terribly optimistic about the title part. Part of the problem is that this blog doesn’t have a unifying theme beyond “oh hey look I’m an artist, listen to my opinions” (which range in topic from the importance of psychology in occupational therapy to why I hate plain M&Ms), and this also includes random crap I found on the internet. Frankly I’ll be surprised if this blog manages to get subscribers who aren’t close friends, part of my family, or my test account.

So for now I’m not going to worry about that last part. Who knows, maybe while writing I’ll discover that I’m making a lot of posts with similar themes and run with it. Right now I’m not to that point, and so this blog remains Untitled.
