Another New Look
October 25, 2009
If its Fall again, it must be time to update the look of Mr Papa’s World. Upon arriving at the site now, you will obviously notice a big difference from the previous look. I have tried to update the site theme based upon my more recent usage of the site.
Instead of the light colors, its a bit darker now. And the twitter feed is more prominent. I have found myself making more tweets than posts these days. Yall really should follow me on Twitter. In addition, the front page now contains mainly excerpts and titles of my (or our with Suzanne’s activity here of late) latest posts. It might take some of you (Hi Mom!) longer to get used to the new site than others.
All current subscriptions to the site should still be valid and the daily email will still contain links to the posts. While not quite appearing the same, you can still find the most recent posts right in the center of the page. Once you venture off the main page, you will see them listed in the sidebar.
I have also spent some time with the new theme (started with base theme from Darren Hoyt) and customized it to my needs. I think the photo gallery, one of the most visited pages on this site, to be structured in a nice new way. I still have a bit of cleanup and tweaking to do, but I feel its ready to unveil the new Mr Papa’s World.
As always, let me know what you think of the new Mr Papa’s World appearance in the comments.
My Poor Blog
June 1, 2009
Oh my poor little blog. How I have neglected it lately! It’s not really by choice, but things have become hectic around here. It probably sounds old, but with work and the kids now doing something damn near every night, time for Mr Papa’s World has been limited. I have managed to do little “Quick Thoughts” blurbs in the sidebar, but that doesn’t really count. Those “Quick Thoughts” get cross posted on Facebook and Twitter and most folks respond to them there since there isn’t any kind of notification about a new post here at Mr Papa’s World.
Being June now, I hope to try to post more about the family happenings. We sure are busy enough to blog about something!
Oh, to get it started, Sean’s baseball team won their second game of the season last weekend. It goes along with their 15 or 16 losses unfortunately. It was a nail biter, as they entered the final inning up 13 – 6, but had to hang on for a final score of 13 – 12. We also received word that the team is going to fore go the playoff system this year and instead just play games. So, that means baseball games up until about the end of July. At two or three games a week, that makes for a hefty season. The heat is already high around here, so luckily, all games will be at night. The season should finish up just in time for football practice to begin for Sean.
This weekend, we have Savannah’s Summer Dance Recital. It’s a two night affair – though I think Sean has a game one night – with Savannah doing like a dozen dances. I really need to do a post about her continued baking work. Until then…
