I don’t like this, as I did not come here to read advertisements… <br />So, my suggestion would be to keep most color in your main blog area (pictures…) and side bar should be there if I would like some more info, like your blog list.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-34089255245566815892010-01-14T19:14:39.280+00:002010-01-14T19:14:39.280+00:00Yup, the new version is much more inviting!

This is the type of thing that I am trying to address with the new look. <br />I guess my use of the blog is a little different to how many people use theirs - I use it as a summary of what is happening on my website where all the stuff about our allotment etc is explained in more detail including all about our area and our allotment site.<br />e.g.<br />http://www.glallotments.btik.<br />com/p_About_Us.ikml<br />This is really why the links are at the top to point visitors in the direction of the websites etc.<br /><br />Did you visit the test blog - was it any better?

Scrolling past the same old links on every visit gets tedious.<br /><br />There's nothing that I see that really tells me about you except that you have an allotment. I don't want to know specifics, like your town or your marital status, but something about your general area of the UK and how long you've gardened or something that makes you more memorable.Jean Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09000315400392984647noreply@blogger.com
