A Quick Update and Announcement
Just in case you've been wondering, no, I haven't disappeared.
I have taken some time to interact with a few of my blogging friends and catch up on a few projects which have kept me busy for the last week or so.
The announcement that I have is this blog is about to undergo a major overhaul. Remember when I told you about the contest over at HackWordPress.com where Kyle and Michael were giving away a few copies of Michael's new WP-Vybe theme? Well, I have good news.
I won Co-1st Prize which included the Developer's License for a choice of either WP-Magazine or WP-Vybe!
Needless to say, I chose Vybe. It is truly one of the best looking premium themes I have come across. If you have come here late at night in the past week or two, you may have seen it in action here as I have been playing around with it a little and exploring all of the options that come with it.
I am just about ready to go live with it, but I do have one small problem. A logo. Those of you who know me know that I am graphically challenged.
I could leave it as text since it is an option, but that makes it look just as plain as it does right now. I will either have to do some more "playing" around on my own or give up and have somebody else do it.
At any rate, this is where I've been and what I've been doing. I will be posting more regular after today. Many more good things are on the way!

Very nice! Congratulations =). I love tinkering with the look of sites and updating it from time to time – though I enjoy producing content, there is nothing quite like giving a face lift to an old friend of a blog.

Thanks!
I know the feeling. I don’t mind updating from time to time, but I’d 10 times rather write content or work on SEO and promotion.

Congrats! The new theme choices look pretty wicked. I know what you mean about being graphically challenged though hahah. I think the artistic gene skipped over me in my family

Hi Chris,
Thank you so much! The more I work with it, the more I like it.
I think the artistic gene skipped my generation, too.
Sometimes I can see what I want in my head, but have no idea how to do it. It’s either that or I draw a complete blank and have no vision at all. I’m pretty much S-O-L either way. LOL
