Well ladies and gentlemen, this is my newly revamped home for my blog! I hope you all will like it and find it better than my old one!
It’s been completely revamped. New layout. New look. New colour scheme. The site will be updated with more and more content, which will hopefully keep you here a little bit longer ;)
All comments and feedback, good or bad is appreciated. And do bear with me as I iron out the last little few changes which will be complete by the beginning of next week!
Looks good. Much better to have a proper domain name and hosting.
The layout is good. One thing I would work on , given the way the boxes display, is trying to an image on every post, so you don’t get loads of the tulip backgrounds. Some of the firms mentioned might let you use an image, or you could carry a camera everywhere and build up your own library of random DG pictures that would fit a topic .eg. a solar panel on a roof, a close up sealed unit, an arched frame, fascias….
Thank god you`ve changed sites.
The last one was so slow at opening pages/comments etc.
It drove me mad..
Keep up the good work GB !
If you aim to upset someone every week , that`ll do for me :-)
Looks good and is much faster so nice one! But you might be better redirecting the old site to this one or you’ll not only be losing the value of any links etc pointing to the old site, but also you’ll have duplicate content issues. Both these things could work against you in your search engine rankings. If you do want to then this may help – http://support.google.com/blogger/bin/static.py?hl=en&ts=1233381&page=ts.cs
Hi Andy
I’ve just asked my IT people to have it redirected, so that should be done within the next couple of hours. Glad you like the site and it’s much faster for you! I know that was the main gripe for most of my readers with the old one!

I’ve put images for all the thumbnails on the front page, and from now on I’ll have an image for everyone. Doesn’t look that good when you have a grey tulip does it?!
I’m going to also build up a gallery of images, then I can use those in relation to a related post :)
Glad you like the new site!

I can’t think of anyone I’ve ever upset ;)
But thanks for the kind comments, glad you like the new site!
