My background especially had to go! After seeing other blogs like yours with such pretty backgrounds, I needed something different. Who knows, maybe I'll change it again in another week, haha ^.^Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763730567652893251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031575485604990008.post-60587447386483135162016-07-19T07:25:28.023-04:002016-07-19T07:25:28.023-04:00Erika it looks so nice! :D I love what you did to ...Erika it looks so nice! :D I love what you did to your blog, it’s always been one of my favorites!

But I think changing our blog means that we're doing good, that we've realized there's something worth changing, worth making better. So in a way, it makes us the smartest of all! ;)Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763730567652893251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031575485604990008.post-65696220347663878082016-07-14T12:10:49.163-04:002016-07-14T12:10:49.163-04:00I really like this new design!

I'm afraid I'm confusing people, since most bloggers rarely ever change theirs, and I've changed mine 4 or 5 times since I started (and that's just the completely resigning!). Anyway, the one-sidebar decision was definitely a good one! It looks really clean now. And good job on the header! :)Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462448754293083878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031575485604990008.post-89722575624863779842016-07-13T18:33:11.395-04:002016-07-13T18:33:11.395-04:00Thank you!

I learned the very basics of Photoshop a few years ago, but I never really understood it, since there were way too many things for me to understand in the two weeks I was learning it. But Pixlr was definitely so much easier to manage, so thank you so much! :DErikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763730567652893251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031575485604990008.post-50360847665707798272016-07-13T18:30:44.614-04:002016-07-13T18:30:44.614-04:00*high fives you back* Phew, I'm glad I'm n...*high fives you back* Phew, I'm glad I'm not the only one who made that rookie mistake!

I felt a bit like I was a fraud in that sense, pretending there was a lot of activity when there wasn't! This one is definitely much easier to manage now :)Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763730567652893251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031575485604990008.post-35406726020421982202016-07-13T18:28:10.927-04:002016-07-13T18:28:10.927-04:00Thank you so much!

For me, Pixlr.com is the easiest to use, especially compared to Photoshop. They have similar functions, so it works for me!

There's always room for improvement, no matter how amazing your design comes out, but there's nothing that stands out to me personally as needing some tweaks. I think most bloggers avoid the 3-column layout because it's very, very easy for it to become way too busy. Two columns gives your blog some extra, clean space.<br /><br />And yes, I think you did a great job on the header as well! :D When you're not an artist, header design can be such a pain.. and copyright on images makes it 1000x worse. :pEve Estellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16100366039767514954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8031575485604990008.post-65368952037915328802016-07-13T00:46:04.018-04:002016-07-13T00:46:04.018-04:00Oooh, Erika!
