Pat's Fantasy Hotlist: Construction ahead. . .

Construction ahead. . .

Just wanted to let you guys know that I have someone coming over to change my blog template. So if all goes well, the Hotlist will sport a brand new look very soon.

Things might go awry, however, so please bear with me while the switch goes into effect. And even when the new template will be on, I'm convinced that there will be a few kinks to iron out for some time.

Hopefully we won't encounter too many problems. . .

Oh, and please, no black background esp. not in combination with red or blue script, if possible. It's giving me headaches.; 8:36 PM

Patrick said...: Yeah, I really like it too!:-)

Never thought my friend would be able to set everything up so quickly.

Now I just need to work on the blogroll, websites of interest, and other categories to bring everything up to speed.; 10:20 PM

I really like the drop down menus in the "Blog Archive" window, but I'm curious as to whether the STAR to designate each new entry should be overlapping the first letter of that entry? At least that's how it looks on my browser (Firefox-mac)? And i see that it doesn't happen in the "Fantasy Blogs of Interest" window. A very minor distraction, that might simply be a missing value in the CSS code.

Anyway, like the new look.
Cheers,; 11:12 PM

munkholt said...: Throw in perm links to your interviews and reviews, please!

It looks very good.; 4:40 AM
John R Morgan said...: Very nice, with much greater prominence to the best bit (the blog).

However, that "Blog Archive" looks bad in both IE and Firefox, so it is not a browser issue...; 5:30 AM
Graeme Flory said...: I like the new look! :o) There's a real fantasy vibe to it now... Are you still keeping stuff like the publisher lists etc?; 6:27 AM
Patrick said...: I'll see what I can do about those menus...

Yep, the old menus will all be back. Just need time to add them to the new layout.; 8:10 AM
Gabriele Campbell said...: That looks very nice.

Easily readable as well.; 8:12 AM

I really like your new layout.
It creates a fantasy like of medieval atmosphere.; 10:00 AM

Anonymous said...: I like it a lot! Not only is it attractive, I can see it! For the past couple of weeks I haven't been able to see any parts of your blog other than the ads.; 7:59 PM
Anonymous said...: It's very pretty. I especially like the dates. And ads are unobtrusive.; 11:40 AM
Patrick said...: Glad to see that everyone likes the new layout. I really like it!

Still have a lot of links and categories to add, which will take a few more days before I bring everything up to speed.

Tried everything to make the Blog Archive window work like the rest of the page, but nothing seems to make it look better...:/; 8:47 PM
