New VirusHead Blog Look
As is my habit from time to time, I’ve changed the look of the blog. I’m using a different base theme, and I’ve customized it a bit.
This is more the standard blog width. I’ve been using full-screen flexible templates for a while and so it looks a little “skinny” to my eyes, but perhaps it’s easier to read this way. I’d like to figure out how to make it about 200-300 pixels wider, but I’ve run out of time today.
The subtitle of the blog has changed, and I’ve added a few of my favorite virus-related quotations on the right sidebar.
I am fond of the rotating banner at the top. I’ve added fifteen images from my own photo collection so far. I’ll probably delete some and add others for a while as I discover better ways to select just the right bit of the photograph for the dimensions of the graphic.
The “V” background graphic is brought in from the main site for a little more continuity. Of course, VirusHead.net badly needs a complete redesign, but that’s a much larger project.
The post “signature” (it’s not actually a scan of my handwriting) is also a new thing. I saw them on some other blogs and liked it. I suspect that it won’t be permanent.
Let me know if anything wonks out on you.

I find it much easier to read, Heidi, and prettier too. BTW, congratulations on your excellent 5 years of blogging. I rarely miss a new article even though I don’t always reply.
as a first time visitor, I don’t have a reference point as to your new blog look. I did refresh the page several times to take a look at your rotating photo headers — your pictures are brilliant. Will be back again soon.

Very pretty! BTW great minds think alike. I re-templated my blog a couple of weeks ago.

I love your blog and think it looks great. I have a lot to learn from your experience. I am still pretty much a newbie blogger.
I like the changes, and who is that pretty blonde in the picture above? Of course, I would never be sexist toward girls. Women, you say? I thought that the women were the people who smelled like moth balls and played Bridge with my mother.
Don’tcha just hate it when I post?
