Let’s Try This Again…DALANEL’s New Look

This theme is called Newsworthy and this was second place when I decided to go with a new theme early last month. My new blog has this theme as well. And, after hearing and seeing more negative than positive reactions to Writr, I decided to go with this new look.

There will be a poll at the end of this post asking you how you like this new look compared to the other. This link will take you to WordPress’ demo site of my previous theme so you can compare.

Okay, so let me just walk you through the new look if you’re not familiar with it.

Vote…Riiiiiight…NOW!

I have a page dedicated to polls on the site. It’s your chance to let our voice be heard. You can also use that page as a suggestion box of sorts. The page is easily called “DALANEL Polls”.

But now, each Saturday for at least this month, I’ll share the polls in posts like this. That way, we should be getting some votes piled up. I’m always adding and taking away polls so check up every once in a while. Otherwise, you’re not allowed to complain about anything. Ha!

Daily Good News 20: On the verge of a medical breakthrough

Peeking at the stats, DGN is doing pretty well for itself. I really think it can lead this blog to some great heights. I want to first start this post by saying, at the end of the post, there will be a poll asking what you like about DALANEL. Please vote. Right now, there are only three features active on DALANEL. I’m thinking about a fourth one that will be weekly on Thursday but we’ll see.

The Results are in: This Current Theme (Writr) Isn’t Working

Okay, well, based on the comments and the choices on the polls, this theme isn’t working out for most of you. For a lot of you, this theme is “blah”. There are a group of you that didn’t really see it as an improvement over my previous theme, but it’s not worse either.

I understand some people do value appearance. I value content. If the content is good, I can handle most themes. However, I don’t want this theme to be boring/bad for you. Therefore, I plan on changing the theme to another one; one that came in second during my final decision for the new theme.

However, hit the polls. Comment. If you like this theme, let me hear ya. The polls are in a three way tie. Go ahead and break it. If you don’t like this them, let me hear ya. I wanted to avoid major change to the blog for at least a few months and I would like to make a final decision. I am aware that I will not please everyone; but, like I said, it would appear most of you are not feeling this look.

I liked it. I thought is was simple. Easy to read on. Oh well. I plan on making the change on Sunday, so you got a few days to make the voice heard. Oh, and, here’s a site that uses the theme I used to have. My buddy runs that site. You can compare those, but, I don’t plan on going back to it.

Okay, you know what to do. Get at it!

Hey, it’s that time again. I’m always working on what I can add to this feature. I’m close to a couple of new additions.

Ah, words of wisdom. It would be really interesting if he’s the one sharing his cookie vs just being a monster about it.

Wednesday Word: The Power of Prayer

Alright, every once in a while, I’ll come across a video of a sermon that I don’t always…”agree” with. This isn’t one of those times but there will be a couple of times where I will look at things differently than what the sermon says.

There is nothing wrong with having your own interpretation or if you want to challenge what you’ve heard. The Lord wants you to challenge Him.

On with the sermon:

The power of prayer.
