Finding Something Friday on Makeovers (Or Does This Blog Make Me Look Fat?)

If you haven't dropped in to the Hall of Fame in a few days...Surprise! But if you have, and noticed the blog makeover, then thanks for the lovely comments. And if you're scratching your head and saying, "Why, yes, things look different but I can't quite put my finger on it," then, um, I'm sure you have lots of other great skills.

So, I've added a few blog pages, a functionality that's especially convenient if you want to add more information but keep a streamlined front page. For those who may not want to go the paid website route, a free blog with pages can be an effective showcase. Just look for the Edit Pages tab (adjacent to the Edit Posts tab) the next time you're writing a new post. It's that simple.

And I think I read where Blogger allows up to ten pages. Think of all you can do with ten pages! You can direct readers to your credentials or contact info. You can add a page of free downloads or fun facts. You can have recipes or riddles or rhymes! Pictures! Pointers! Puddles!

Um, okay, maybe not puddles. But I think you can see that the possibilities are endless.

I still have a bit of streamlining to do before this blog's shiny new makeover is complete. I just hope you'll still recognize the sleeker, shadow of her former self, Cathy C.'s Hall of Fame!
