Extreme Makeover

So if you visit this site rather than read it off an RSS subscription you've noticed a new appearance. Recently WABA agreed to sponsor the site - covering the cost of upgrading to the Pro level - and so they're featured in a few places on the site. In addition to the fancy new banner and swanky look there are some other changes associated. One is that the blog can now have multiple authors. WABA is helping me line up a few people to post, which means you'll get better content. Multiple writers will bring multiple opinions and more insight (I can't attend every BAC meeting in every jurisdiction). It'll also mean I won't have to post as often, which is good since I start grad school in a few weeks and will probably have less time. And WABA has the option of running sub-blogs off of this one and they're considering some ideas on that. So all in all, more content. I'm still working out some of the kinks (typepad isn't very intuitive and the tools drop off once you try to break out of their standard themes) but the remaining things to fix are relatively small. Hopefully, you find the changes are an improvement and not a distraction.

Kudos to you for a great blog and for WABA for recognizing a good thing and getting on board.

I like the plain white background better. This green and brown scheme doesn't have much contrast [harder on the eyes]. But congrats on being sponsored. This is a great website [except for the color scheme].

Everybody's a critic. Nancy, you don't love the new color scheme yet, but that's because you don't know it. With time you'll learn to love it. At least, that's what I tell Mojca, my mail order bride.
