So far, the header has been changed, the font for the blog, some of the background colors, and a number of typos fixed. I am looking to do a little bit more. I have also identified a problem with Mozilla Firefox not reading the html line spacing commands for blogger. I am still not sure what to do about this. I contacted blogger help about this. Now, it seems to be working a tiny bit better. I also changed the number of posts visible on the page to five at a time. I had ten at a time. This should reduce the amount of time it takes to load my page considerably.
Mugshot http://www.blogcatalog.com/user/mugshot was nice enough to donate a new header. I have started a second conversation about redesigning my blog on blogcatalog. http://www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/criticise-my-blog-dont-be-nice

Seems fine to me. The only comment I have is on length. Apparently, according to received wisdom, less is more in post length, as people can't take in too much at once. Lucy at http://www.scribblecitycentral.blogspot.com

I have thought about this. I have heard that post length should be about 1000 words at most. Some people even limit an individual post ro 400 to 600 words long.
I do like your blog. I have written long posts but it consists in creative writing I have done, so I don't know if it has to be considered differently to your blog.
Glad you liked my blog.

All I can say, is please do NOT get rid of the daily art. I love the portraits and drawing you find and post. Maybe a little more information on your personal reading choices and interests.
I find it relaxing to find the daily art every morning.
Hello there,
Have you thought of the effect of putting your links on the left rather than the right? I find in a culture where one is programmed to read left to right having additional info on the latter usually means people don't read it. Putting info (like the fab links you have) on the left-hand side usually means people subconsciously take note. Just a thought.
Best,
AJN

p.s. the contents of your posts are very interesting! A
Actually I have thought about it. I want people to read my articles and thoughts more than my links. So the articles and thoughts should be first. Content is more important than links.
Links are secondary. It is also one of the reasons why I do not have a three column blog.
Seems like everyone is redesigning their blog! I'm re-designing mine. I like the colors and I love the header. I think maybe the point size of the text could be little bigger.
