A new year… a new look
Where have I been since the last time I visited this blog? I was busy finishing up school and then looking for work. Finally, after redesigning my site, I thought to come here. I didn’t want to delve too deeply into the WordPress theming just yet so I only made two slight modifications.
The first: Ta-da! The rotating banner. I got the code after doing a Google search and it was a quick implementation. The not-so-quick was the creation of the images. I decided to peruse my Paris photos and they worked out quite well.
The second: The background. Not a major change since all I did was add a swirl to it with the line “Hold fast to dreams…” but it’s a nice little touch. The words come from a Langston Hughes poem about dreams and their signficance in life. It’s only two verses but I’ve had it memorised since I was a little kid (much thanks to my big brother) and use it as a source of encouragement.
So for this new year, I am going to try to post more, especially about things I read or find about trends in new media or the web. With the slight redesign of the blog, I am hoping it is a step forward in the new year!
