Welcome to gedblog
It’s my pleasure to welcome you to the newly designed gedblog. After my friend and co-workers, Craig Hockenberry and Anthony Piraino launched their own blogs, each with a custom and rather nice look and feel, I thought it was finally time to break free of the default WordPress themes and do the place up right.
Although the look and feel of the site echos some of the colors of the Simpla theme by Phy Lu over at WordPress, the layout, secondary elements and overall feel are all me. This new design would not have been possible however, without the generous help of my friend Anthony who slaved away for weeks to turn my raw Photoshop templates into CSS reality. I owe ya big time my friend!
Likewise thanks go out to Craig as well who has been instrumental in getting the new blog up and running smoothly. Even though I’ll still be tinkering in the days and weeks ahead, I couldn’t have gotten the new site in place without Craig’s help, so once again, the Foreman sends his thanks.
If you’ve come here from my old WordPress blog, please update your bookmarks accordingly. The old site won’t be updated further, so this is now, as Frank Costanza says, “The place to be!”. I hope you enjoy the new site, be sure to tell all your friends, family and complete strangers to come and visit. Onward ho!
Loving the design, Ged. Simple, identifiable, and let’s face it- no one can resist an animal as a blog header.
Great to see you’ve moved into this domain and got such a beautiful new design. I’ll be subscribing once more!
Great new design with improved HTML! I need to get me some coder and designer friends 🙂
Thanks for the kind words guys! Mindy graciously let me user her Hamstergeddon desktop pict for the site’s header, which you can find here.
Now if there was only some way of re-directing posts from the old blog to the new blog…
It’s up and running? Sweet! I’m at the Apple Store at the Christiana Mall in Delaware right now, catching up on my websurfing… my Mom has no internet access :P. Glad to see everything’s working – have a great Christmas! Talk to you online in a few days…
Nice! I know it’s minor, but I love the tiny “tag” icon next to the category.
Wow! Congratulations! I love this new site and design…a big round of applause 🙂
I’ve updated your link on my blogroll!
Good luck in the new home
