Pretty, Shiny & New…
Posted on January 9, 2008 by Christine | 11 Comments
I needed a change, and thanks to the fabulous talents of Derek Powazek and a little code-fu of my own, I have one. Code-fu which even involved CSS, because the center column wasn’t 500 pixels wide, so my photos were messing up the page. 500 pixels is the default medium size from Flickr, and I almost always post my blog photos there, so that had to be changed here.
Reading in a feed reader? Come by the blog and check it out. Come on out from blurking and let me know what you think. There are still some things to tweak, but I’ll continue to work on it.
By the way, if you link to me, could you link to me as “Christine”? Because I really, really want to get my status as the #1 Christine on Google back. Yes, I am a dork. I already knew that.

Hi! I'm Christine. I've been blogging here since 2000. I am married to Mike. I have a son, Jason. We have a cat, Mona. We live in Houston, Texas.
I love helping other photographers and other small business owners improve their businesses. Most of my posts here are related to that, although sometimes I write about personal things as well.
I am currently available for business & blogging consulting and assisting you with WordPress. Contact me for more details.
I am a wedding and boudoir photographer and I'm available both in Houston and for travel worldwide. I would love to be a part of your wedding!
You can buy prints of my photography.
In addition to photography and geek things, I sometimes knit. I even used to have a knitting podcast, PointySticks.

Yay!
Funnily enough, I was considering doing exactly the same think for my crafty blog, but I may use the skinny theme.
Looking good though, although I’m a little freaked out by the search box without a button
Also, First!

I’m changing my look to this one too on the weekend! Your wedding link on the side bar isn’t working in FF.
Thought I would let you know.

Looks great! When I redesigned my site, I had to adjust for the 500px Flickr photos too

Nice and clean! Now…I’ve gone about 2 months without changing my template look. OK, I just changed the pink to matchy-matchy my Web site, but otherwise, I’m doing great! (And getting a wee bit itchy – LOL!)

I used this theme for a while and loved how fast it loads. Simple is always best, especially when you post photos! xoxo
