i’ve changed.

I just made tons of changes to Fish Food. So…. What do you think? Are the pictures too big? Or are they ok. I deserve a treat for this. Doing this CSS is kinda over my head. Maybe something like this:

chelsea February 11, 2009 at 8:01 PM: I like!
Amanda B February 11, 2009 at 8:02 PM: looks good to me! And that ice cream is a definite reward for your CSS hard work.
food librarian February 11, 2009 at 8:02 PM: The photos are a great size. I don’t understand any of things you probably did…I’m so boring I use a basic template in Blogger. The only thing is that I can’t see your links on the right side very easily. Were they that light and small before? Or perhaps my eyes are going worse! I just love your blog!
Nags February 11, 2009 at 8:07 PM: The font is way too light and strains the eyes. The pics are huge but I am not complaining
Teri Lyn Fisher February 11, 2009 at 8:22 PM: Thanks for the feedback guys! Much appreciated. I changed some of the font colors, so its should be a little better now.
I used the regular template on here for so long, but ti just got to the point where it wasn’t working. Thus the day long activity of understanding the css stuff. I’m just glad its over.
matt February 11, 2009 at 8:28 PM: NOOOOOOO IT IS PERFECT!!!
OMG I LOVE IT!
KEEP IT!
ana February 11, 2009 at 9:20 PM: it’s lovely Teri
beth February 12, 2009 at 1:22 AM: I love the fresh and clean look. The large photos are AWESEOME!!! The font could be just a touch darker…still seems a little light (but maybe it’s just my monitor). Some day I will move away from the constraints of a template…
Keep up the fabulous work!
Patricia Scarpin February 12, 2009 at 5:07 AM: I love the size of your photos – actually, they are amazing in any size.
Katie February 12, 2009 at 5:44 AM: Vey nice Is it super challenging to get the pics bigger? I might need a new home for my blog, because the pic size is very limiting. Oh, and I was also wondering if you have any tips for saving in photoshop to keep the colors true when your photo get published on the blog. For some reason, the colors look about 50% more vivid and true in photoshop/on my screen than they do when they publish in blogspot. I’m not a photographer by any means, but I still want my pics to look pretty!
Teri Lyn Fisher February 12, 2009 at 8:33 AM: Katie-
Now that I have figured out how to do it, its not that hard. Plus, typepad gives you semi detailed instructions. I had some previous CSS and programming experience, so it helped a bit. As for images not looking as good as they do in photoshop, it sucks. All web browsers color manage to some degree, in a bad way. There is no way to really predict what it will do. As a rule of thumb, generally I boost the contrast in levels by bringing the black point in, and then I boost the saturation. Usually that fixes things ok, but I def had gone back in fourth before to make sure my images look good. I hope that help
PS
If you switch to typepad, let me know! I will totally help you with the CSS and making images bigger!
angelique February 12, 2009 at 4:32 PM: looks GREAT!!!
Broderick February 26, 2009 at 9:06 PM: The blog is gorgeous. I fussed over templates for months before deciding on starting my little blog. It’s worth the trouble to get your photos to stand out
