Pardon the Dust…

…around here (sidebars are still being worked on). As I had mentioned on Saturday, I am working on getting a face-lift for my blog. I have found a wonderful site that offers free-templates: Templatelite. However, with the ‘free’ comes a price – I can’t remove the credit links on the bottom. So…before I make a switch (and pay hard-earned money to remove the credit links) I am testing out some templates over the next 90 days.

Why testing? For one, I can not pick between 3 themes I like. I would like to ‘test-drive’ all three themes over the next three months. I need to know how user-friendly the theme is to my readers, and how well the theme ‘plays’ with my plugins…

The first theme I am testing for the next 30 days is called “Note-Paper”. I like the clean look; I am able to customize the header; I like how the sidebars do not look so cluttered (I am a little strange about clutter – just ask my beloved )

Let me know over the next 30 days what you like or don’t like about ‘Note-Paper’…

   This is going to be difficult Iris, because I already really like this one. It is so neat and lovely. It all looks very easy to manage too. So…It’s a thumbs up for this one.

   It’s very pretty, clean, and uncluttered. It loads fast too which is always a plus.

   You can email me if you want help removing the credit links to the ‘free’ backgrounds I like your blog and will return. My daughter Alex has a blog where some of your same links are listed – well done!

   Very nice! I look forward to seeing the others too to compare, but this one is nice to me. I like the colors and the sidebar over at the site seems very organized.
