So how does this blog look to you? I tried changing the blogskin, and I’ve realized it looks different in different browsers. It looks perfect in Opera, OK in one version of Explorer, wonky in another version, and completely stupid in Firefox.

What are you seeing in the header? It should be a swooshy red thing.

Sigh. I should leave this stuff to the professionals.

EDIT: Red swooshy begone. Let’s try this for awhile. It’s romancey and goddessy – just what I need.

    Love the new look!!! Of course, since you changed it, I’ve been itching to give mine a makeover. I would love to create one myself but that would take too much time (which I’m not willing to take). Great progress with the book. I love your heroine. Missy and Lucy will have to do lunch sometime.

    I get a rust colored swooshy thing. Everything looks fine.

    No swooshy red thing for me. 🙁

    You’re swooshy, but more cayenne than red in Explorer. Quite bright and perky! I still have to find the directions for my blog site so I can read them. I inadvertantly set up the whole thing (cheesy name) and just closed out in impatience waiting for the graphics to load. The blogosphere is a dangerous place. 😉

    Haha, Maggie – yes, that would be the serene expression I wore before I had children.

    My hair looks like that somedays, though.

    My only comment on this, really, is that it’s hard to read, unfortunately. The red/rust text on the grey background is really tough to make out.

    … nevermind. Background finally loaded. I feel dum.

    I like the goddess!

    Sara, it took that long!? What kind of connection do you have? Maybe I should just go back to the blah blog look.

    Maggie you’re right! Tessa is Aphrodite in disguise!

    ps. Keep it. This skin is great!

    I’ve got a broadband connection. I think it was Blogger, actually. Once the graphic loaded, I haven’t had that problem again, so keep it! I like it too. 🙂

    I so want to know when this book gets published. Wonderful! You’ve just got to love Lucy. LOL

    On my browser, Mozilla Firefox, the rust colored print is difficult to read against the dark green. If it were in bold and perhaps a size larger it would greatly help. But the overall look is great.
