Goodbye to my old theme

There’s a lot of revamping going on in my blogs lately and I am not done yet. I started with merging some of my blogs and changing the themes. Not only did this blog got a new theme but my other blog, Bizarre Marriage, is also running on a new theme since last week. The next few weeks will bring more merging. My target is to have less than five blogs and at the moment I still have like seven or so.

The reason why I am doing this is because I want to be able to manage all of my blogs well and with the day job coming this September, I’ll definitely have lesser time for blogging so I thought that it is better to keep fewer blogs but manage them well than to keep all my blogs and leave most them unattended.

So anyway, I like my old theme and it worked well for me but I’ve been using it for a long time so I thought of using a new one for a change.

I think my new theme is great! ElegantThemes.com has some really handsome themes and I particularly like this one because of it looks clean. The photos, if you noticed, are not related to the blog posts but for aesthetics’ sake, I placed one photo on each post. This theme looks way better with the photos and in the future I will try to put photos that are related to my blog posts. There’s one thing though… and I would do it if I could but I my PHP knowledge is very limited. It is actually not even enough to place the “recent comments” and “random articles” on the bottom of the page instead of displaying them on top.

And then there’s also the reminder from Sterndal that since I merge some of my blogs, I also have to fix some links. She’s right but I’m not sure if I would like to go through all that hassles. This blog alone has almost a hundred posts and I after putting photos on each of them, I don’t like to imagine going through each post to check if the links are linking to deleted blogs. But maybe I’ll do it someday. Who knows? It’ll definitely make my blog better.
