Blog Your Own Blog
When I upgraded to Movable Type 4 several months ago, I wasn't able to find the time to tweak the style to my liking. I just went with one of the default styles and let it go. I've noticed a lot of other Movable Type blogs out there with the same style lately and decided I definitely needed a change. As hikers say, "Hike you own hike," I say, "blog your own blog." This week I finally set aside some evening hours to play with the templates a bit and made some changes. The header image is the Whitney Ridge from the west side (sunset view from Guitar Lake) taken from last summer's John Muir Trail trip - it's a picture that brings back happy memories of one of my favorite nights on the trail.
I'm still tweaking some CSS (the fonts don't want to play very nice) and I've also added a link to my new wildflowers page in the top navigation (also a work in progress). There will likely be a few more changes since I'm not entirely happy with what I've done in a short period of time, but at least I am now unique and no longer using a default Movable Type template.
