An all new look

Every now and then, I develop the genuine desire to change the look of this site as the little “bit’s wrong” with the current look finally get on my nerve’s too much. Whenever that happens, I start browsing the thousands of joomla template sites out there looking for something that appeals again.
The best ones, I load in here and try out. Tonight I tried 4, the 5th from my shortlist… I liked. A bit of hacking, mostly to modify some module-layouts (this template has less modules than the old one) and voila.

I like the new look myself, it’s cleaner, easier on the eyes and at any given time more focussed on the central content. The sidebars are meant to be navigation aids, not to draw attention from the actual content – especially the blog.
Another little bonus of this theme is that it had room for a site-logo again, something I had not had for a long time… with a bit of choosing to find the right picture…

Let me know what you think about the new site in the comments, talking of which, the rules now are:
1) If you have never commented before, your comment will be held for moderation and only posted after I checked it [the several automatic spamblocking tools in place is to reduce the burden on me].
2) Once I approve a comment from you, your comments in future will appear automatically.

Hope this clarifies it.
