Blog Renovation

As you can see, my blog has a new layout now~ whether you say it's better or ugglier, I definitely like this because I customize and design most of the things MYSELF!!! Different from others who just pick some templates from blogspots or download something elsewhere (of course those looks better), I spent whole day studying, analysing the HTML codes, working on Paint and Power Point to make this new look.

Header
The previous one is a silver header with keyboard and mic which I got from Deviantart, I strongly reccomend this site as they have a lot of cool customize images. The new one, it's originally a piano desktop background that I crop the desired part. The old one just can't fit into that long length of my new layout, also to signify that in this year I upgraded from a keyboardist to a pianist ^_^.

Content
The main objective that I wanted a new layout is to extend my limited width. I increased it from 760 pixel to 992 pixel~ this gives me more space to upload more pictures in one row, and also my paragraph won't look that long.

Notice the left side of the content, I dig out the white part of a piano keyboard image and arranged it. The green clover background is a green pattern that I found from google image. I make everything into one row, then just set it repeat-y in the layout HTML to fill up the whole blog. In order to upload your customize image as a URL, use this site -ImageShack.

Photo
Something that I liked too, now my posted photos have small invisible frame. It makes the pictures looked more organized ^_^.

Sidebar
Now, my sidebar has increased from 269 pixel to 300 pixel, more space for my gadgets. Please notice the crosses that I scattered around the left side. It was s hard to arranged them into same distances. The block crosses at the right just can't fit nicely, so I draw a blue ball to fill the space.

Compare both sidebars:

During last year August when I had a one holiday, I spent days study HTML codes. That's why I have my own customized background and header. Now, I customize even more. It feels so good looking something I made ^_^.

"Then the sovereignty, power, and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be given to the holy people of the Most High. They will rule forever, and all rulers will serve and obey them."

Pray that Cheras Baptist Church will have a blessed time in the camp this weekend. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
