- I messed with my theme, but only to change the header image on the left-hand sidebar. Otherwise, it's the same theme, which I'll likely keep for the foreseeable future because I love how it looks. Do you like the new image?
- I updated my social media icons with new colors that reflect the colors in my header.
- I added more ways to reach me and get in touch, including: Twitter, LinkedIn, About.me, and email contact icons.
- I moved my "blogroll" to a links page called "blogs & websites" that you can find on the top navigation bar.
- I moved some citation-type information to the footer so you know where I got my header image & how to find those cute little social media icons.
- I added an Instagram widget (my favorite iPhone app, by far!)
- I moved my admin link off the sidebar.
- Finally, I installed a plug-in that allowed me to make a really neat archives page, rather than the boring drop-down menu I had before, which can also be found on the navigation bar. Take a look, it's really neat. It categorizes it by the month, then includes either a title or a picture for the link to the post, depending, of course, on whether or not the post has any images. Too much fun!
That's about it, but it's the most blog maintenance I've done in a while. I may also mess with my theme link hover colors, but I'm not sure it's worth it since the theme coder included the stylesheets in a separate folder, making it impossible to edit the CSS from the built-in editor--which, as much as I love this theme, was almost a deal breaker because I'm a person who likes to make small tweaks to my themes.
So, what do you think?
PS. My site can now barrel roll. My life is complete. ((Go to the search bar on the left side, type barrel roll, and experience the magic)).
