Well, I think that I am going to officially call this new version of my blog, theWordherderOnline.com, to be pretty much completely reopened… at least in the respect that there should be no noticeable changes beyond the usual tinkering and fixing of bugs that might pop up.
Keeping it Simple!
The most noticeable change is certainly the extremely minimal visual appearance that this version has as opposed to previous flavors. As the focus of this place is going to eventually become more of a portfolio than a daily news/blog site, I rather like the clean, almost empty look that surprisingly opens itself to more pages, options, bells and whistles that most “overly busy” feeling WordPress sites have. This is certainly the case with previous Wordherder designs that have always seemed too much all at once and then lacking in any deeper content depth.
Tasty on the inside as well!
The design isn’t the only thing that got trimmed and toned — under this baby’s hood is a far more efficient set of plug-ins, css tweaks, apps that offer me so many better ways to get the content out there all while not bogging the load times down with unneeded garbage or glitchy code. In a later post I shall give everyone a tour of some interesting things that are on the back-end and slightly beyond the recreational blog (thank you PHP and CSS classes, haha).
Let the Games Begin!
Feel free to play around in here and look forward to a LOT more content to come now that the scripting and geekery is pretty much finished. Throw me some comments and check back often!
