A new year is always a good time for making changes and I have decided to start over again for 2025 with an all new Blogger blog using a slightly more modern theme. But not too modern, because I think most blog themes look totally lame. In fact I'm completely repulsed by the style of most "modern" blogs.
After a quick look around I concluded that all the more fashionable up to date themes SUCK! I realise I'm a bit old school, but to me they all look "Lame and Gay" as Eric Cartman might say.
They are mostly bright white backgrounds with a bunch of distracting magazine style tiled images, and plenty of adverts. I want a simple dark look with basic menus, no distractions.
So from the start of 2025 I have swapped over and redirected the www.sift.co.nz URL to this new Sift blog, making the old 2024 blog an archive. The hits on the old blog were so low I was starting to wonder just what was going on with it, and it was starting to have an increasing number of display and formatting issues, so rather than trying to sort it out, I thought it was time for a fresh start.
As with my archived FROT blog I have left the old SIFT blog as it was, but it's looking a bit crap now that it's stopped displaying the colours I selected, and is all shades of grey. With the new theme on this blog ("Awesome Inc Dark") I'm aiming for something less limp looking, and fingers crossed it will keep on behaving itself.
