Ended up quite a bit like my previous design, just with different colors and typefaces and similar small details. For the moment, however, I’ve stopped tweaking it.

Started off a template set provided by my hosted service, now I can fiddle with the CSS and templates and keywords and fun things of that type to achieve exactly the look I want.
Or I can leave it the way it is and bitch about how I never finished designing it…. hrm.
Well, I’ve tried out two designs on my site in the last few days, both built from TypePad’s built-in design library and its custom-CSS and other design features. I may convert one or both to their advanced-template system and fiddle with the designs a bit more but for now I’m content to try several other radically different look-and-feel combinations over the next few months until I find one I like.
That also gives me time to futz with learning CSS and other design handiness in the interim, the better to unleash an amazing design in the future.
bwahahahaha.
