Happy to discuss these issues further via email when you have a moment; you’re observation about CSS is quite right, but I can make some suggestions.

Thank you, I will take you up on that offer. My reasoning for moving to .org was there were some elements of .com I was finding frustrating ie I would like to have Google Analytics to give a bit more info on the stats of people visiting the blog, and there are so many parts of a theme you can’t change for instance in my last theme Dusk to Dawn I couldn’t lighten the colour of the sidebar which I felt was too dark. You can purchase the CSS but I didn’t feel confident in knowing what to do once I had the code. (Which of course will be an issue going to .org and why I need a techno person to help with the transition and hopefully set it up in way that I won’t need much code afterwards). I’m still debating what to do – there are so many options – I just know my blog isn’t looking quite right yet and I need to figure out how to make it look better.

The functionality offered by some of the .com templates is amazing (I’m using Linen for a new site right now and love the options it offers). If you want to bounce ideas off of someone, I don’t mind. I’m at info AT foilmedia . ca

My new header was designed by another student from BYW that I met in the forum and didn’t cost me anything. Are you a member on the Facebook BYW group? I’m sure this question has been asked a few times there..check it out could be helpful Janine.

Hope you’re having a great weekend.
