What do you think?

I got back from UCLA on Sunday and for the last five days I have been doing nothing but work on this web site. I intend to eventually submit an entry describing how I put this all together. Another thing I intend to submit soon is a trip report chronicling my adventures down south in Los Angeles. However, for the time being I am going to get some sleep because tomorrow I have to drop my brother off at Berkeley for summer school.

Now that everything is pretty much set up in terms of layout and design I am really curious to hear what you think. It should look good in any modern browser but I only tested Internet Explorer, Mozilla, and Opera.

Please post your comments, suggestions, criticism, or bug reports. I really would appreciate it.

Maybe you could have even more shades of pink to choose from.

Thanks for the suggestion, Eric! I'm also going to change the skin names from the numbers “1 2 3 4” to more descriptive identifiers such as “gray purple blue”.

It looks very cool, but “where is the beef?”

The “About me” box needs a little editting, since it has one extra I.
Congratulations for a great looking blog!

You could add a voting box and start with a poll about the preferred skin.

Great suggestions, Muta Ceva. I have fixed the “About me” box and I hope to add some beef over the next couple of days. I like the idea of a voting box for the preferred skin and I'll think up some ways of implementing it. It might require a lot of server-side hacking to create a general framework for a voting system, but I'll let you know what I discover.

After you perform a Search your skin preference isn't saved.

Think about avoiding the “and this is what I did today” that everyone does. I'm more interested in how you percieve life, your philosophies, etc. Or just imitate tucker max.

Hi Dan! Great looking blog! My only suggestion is to change the loading color for the blog to choice 0 or 1. The blue you use currently is a little hard on the eyes. Also, I would love to see more content…
