I thought it was about time I tidied up my blog a bit, other than changing the general look and feel, I’ve done a few structural things also. I found that my sidebar was getting really long and looking really ugly too, so I’ve created a big foot(er) containing categories, archives, blogroll etc…I figured these are the things that users aren’t going to use that often so why not stick them down the bottom?!

I thought it would be nice to also integrate my Twitter(ings), so with the help of the Twitter javascript badge I’ve placed it in the header and added a little bit of styling to it.

And finally I’ve at last managed to properly integrate my Flickr images using the Falbum 7.0 plugin (now with Ajax!) which is great! I had tried this before but my sidebar was wandering all over the place.

There’s still some more tidying up to do but it’s getting there, hopefully these changes will make my blog a bit more enjoyable to read…

If anyone has any feedback/suggestions feel free to add a comment!
