We looked up the other day and noticed people were reading the site. This is a strange and new experience for us, and we were quite confused as to what we should be doing. Perhaps a dance of some kind?
It was suggested to us that maybe updating the look of the site from the default template that came with the WordPress software would go a long way towards making us look like we actually had a clue what we were doing.
So, Bruce and Doyle set to work. Having slaved all day and accumulating several broken windows and a cat who will never walk the same again, we have a new theme for olilolo. Isn’t it nice? Doesn’t it set off our eyes?
Even the behind the scenes stuff has been all changed around. The new posting window, for example, now sings Ave Maria in the voice of Harry Secombe. It’s an interesting feature, but I can see it getting old quickly.
Anyway, we were wondering what you thought. Has this been a good move, or do you fear change, and has this small disruption to your daily shedule caused you to cower under the bed in trembling terror?
I like the way it display the date accusingly on every post. Especially accusingly if we’ve forgotten that we even had a blog for a week or three.
Yeah, it’s really right THERE, isn’t it? It’s almost like it’s accusing us of not posting enough. “This article was posted on May 12. Check your calenders, that was weeks ago! These guys suck!”
Man, who chose this asshole theme?
Well I think it’s a lovely new layout and colour scheme. That world map graphic has a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ to it. On an entirely unrelated note, may I post a blog on your wonderful site? Pending your approval, of course…..
Your theme pleases me in 19 different ways.
I like it. It makes me jealous. It makes me want to re-makeover my site, again.
You bastards.
Jeff. We have a whole guest bloggers category, approval pending we’d love an excuse not to have to post for a few days.
As long as Stu can vouch for your “character” of course.
How many hit points. Agility. Special items. The usual.
I can vouch for Jeff. We’ve had many adventures together. Flick me an email mate.
…and by ‘adventures’…
…I mean “hot dinners”, yes.
… and by “hot dinners”…
…I mean “takeaway Indian food”.
…and we all know what ‘”takeaway indian food” means.
Yeah. Sub-par cooking!
Wow. Eroticism at it’s best!
I really like the site design. The lines are clear, the colour scheme is pleasing, and the ads manage to be totally unobtrusive. Which is awesome, until you realise no fucker clicks on them, but still. Cross that bridge when you come to it.
It looks great.
Unfortunately the colour scheme is too different to Word now and it will be a whole lot harder to pretend I’m working and not surfing the net when reading blogs in future.
DOPE
You could always read it on your phone.
