New look for blog

As regular readers will have noticed, I've tweaked the look of this blog, putting a photo in the header, changing the list of boaty blogs to one which ranks them in update order, and changing my mugshot. I'd noticed several blogs with the blog upate feature, and worked out how to do it. Enjoy!

Hi Halfie,

Nice new look, rejigged my own a few weeks ago, just noticed your link to other boaty blogs isn't working, is it supposed to be?

Thanks for the comment, Heth. The links on the right seem to be working - which one or ones didn't?don't?

Hi Halfie,

It's down at the bottom RHS, underneath "Waterlilly" where it says "Other blogs" - that used to be a link to erm... other blogs lol

Heather, I've checked again: there's only one link under the "other blogs" heading - to "An American in Bournmouth" - and it works for me. Can't understand what's going wrong.

Hi Halfie, I get what's happened now, before the changes to your blog, I'm (almost) sure that "Other blogs" was a link (or a drop down link) that opened up another list, (a link to my TT blog was in there & has gone now). At last the penny's dropped tho, however it was set up before doesn't matter - the "Other blogs" is now actually just a heading to a list with one blog so far in there, right? I just noticed the TT link (& some others) had "gone awol". Or have I dreamt this? I wouldn't be surprised if none of this makes sense lol,,,

Heather - it does make sense now. One thing which happens when you make changes to your blog is that you can't see what it was like before. "Other blogs" wasn't a drop-down menu (I don't know how to do them). I'm afraid your blog got accidentally left out when I redid the bloglist to be an automatically updating one. It has now been restored!

Thx Halfie,

Been thinking about adding that update gadget, might try it myself sometime. Love the car on your latest post, when I first read it -thought you had won it like for good! Bet you wish so, must be worth a fortune!
