But I think I am going to have to make the leap, because frankly, there are a lot of features I am missing out on, and the fact that I lost 6 months worth of comments already makes the fear about losing something during the transition a little less scary.
And frankly, I'd rather change over before I am forced to so I can plan out the transition in a way that I am most comfortable with. Because I fear change.
Long time readers know that I value consistency, and I have largely had the same design on this blog with some tweaks here and there for almost the entire lifespan of Culture Kills, so the prospect of a radical redesign is daunting and a little offputting, but going to Layouts may indeed be the perfect time to do a redesign. If I am going to embrace the present, I might as well update things while I am at it. I've been the plaid menace for a long time, but much like a starlet getting a nose job while they are having a deviated septum worked on or someone having to repair flood damage taking that opportunity to finish their basement, I think this would give me a kick in the ass to actually start going beyond what I've been doing as of late designwise.
I don't know what this is going to look like when I am done (I have a test blog to work on things before I make the transition). But I think unlike the other times I said I was working on this site, I actually mean it this time.
Just keeping everyone in the loop.
