As you will all have noticed, this blog (and my other blogs) have undergone a heavy dose of redesign. Today, I upgraded my blogging platform to Wordpress 2.5 and decided that as some changes to my old theme would be necessary anyway, I might as well chuck the whole thing out the window and start off afresh. The old theme was cluttered, unattractive and not very easy to read.

The new theme I have chosen is based on a popular Wordpress theme called ‘Simpla’ but with lots of my own modifications. I have opted for a clean template with easy navigation despite the tendency these days to choose something colourful and flashy - after all, it’s the content on a blog that matters!

I have also enabled ‘Gravatars’ - when you leave a comment, you can also have your ‘avatar’ displayed alongside it. To get your ‘gravatar’, please go to http://www.gravatar.com and sign up.

If you notice any bugs, please do let me know. I would also like to know what you think of the new design so please leave some comments

Thanks - I’ll try and put some ‘interesting’ posts on here soon!
