It’s Brand-Spankin’ New!

YAAAAAAY!

I finally finished as much coding as I can handle, and my new design is live. Tell me you all love it. NOW.

Now I can get back to posting content. This re-design was a doozy, since I did it all myself and I have no background in web design or coding. But I took two online courses that really helped: Your Darling Blog from Jo Klima at The Darling Tree, and The Girl’s Guide to Web Design by Amanda Aitken Verrall of Better Than Chocolate Web Design. With the design lessons from Jo and the coding lessons from Amanda, I managed to re-design, move to a new customizable theme, and code everything. With much help from the support forums, but I did it!

Thanks to all the lovely ladies who helped me through the coding part… I was asking questions constantly and they always got back to me promptly and with great information.They are the best!

Thanks for being patient while I worked through this whole process. If you do find any hiccups, links that don’t work, alignment mistakes, yadda yadda, please let me know in the comments. I don’t have a quality control department over here.

Onward, soldiers!
