New Duds
Welcome to the new look for Bay City Ball, this is essentially the third design that I’ve used for the website. I decided to switch over to a different design because the old design was starting to feel a little old and stale. I also like the way this design presents the content and I think it just looks better overall. Other than the design, everything else is essentially the same, user accounts all still work and the archives are still up and functioning.
New Stuff and Things-to-do
- The site will now be using tags as well as categories. This should help to narrow down searches for those who browse the site.
- I need to work on the CSS file some more, mostly just basic stuff - changing link colors, shaping up the comments section some, etc. - and it should hopefully be done in a day or two. The links are kinda hard to see in the posts right now but I’ll work on that.
- You can also search the archives, like in the last version, the same way. Just use the search bar in the top right hand corner, type in your terms, and hit enter.
That’s basically it for now. I’ve tested the site in IE and Firefox and both look satisfactory. If you run into any issues or would like to make a suggestion to make the site better, just send me an email.
