almost there

I'm getting there.

Today, I was able to redesign my blog. I changed the theme and header but this does not mean that it will be the NEW blog theme/design. As I've said in my previous entry, I had a difficult time selecting the most appropriate photo and theme but selecting the best substitute proved to be a likewise, difficult job as well so I decided to use this new design for the night and will change it the following day with another, until I find the most appropriate theme. I am also planning on creating a poll with the various themes I will be testing to get a second opinion from others.

Finding the best theme and photo has been really hard. Some of the photos I've liked were either too small, too wide, too pixelated, etc. Gus was able to help me resize this current header using MS Paint only. (Yes, since my beloved Mr. Zhu died earlier this year, I haven't been able to utilize the full potential of all the computer applications and software I had before. Thus, using MS Paint to edit photos. :c) I was actually relieved because 1) he helped me place the picture on the header (since I couldn't remember how I did it before), and 2) he helped me make the photo fit. And all this while he was sick. Thank you, Gus!

There you go. I'm getting there. Almost there. I can't wait to see the final outcome. Check out the new theme tomorrow.

Before I forget, the photo on the header of this theme is courtesy of http://princessmartini.deviantart.com/art/Chinese-Garden-02-40265387. Thank you. :)

Okay, it's been almost a week since I began revamping my blog and yet I've failed to come up with even a single change up to this day. I just realized this was going to be harder than what I had thought of. Design-wise, looking for the perfect, most appropriate design for my blog proved to be difficult. I couldn't find the best photo I would want to use and when I tried looking for a substitute, looking for that perfect substitute proved to be a difficult task as well. Right now, I have a couple of photos, which, thank God, I found beautiful and appropriate, I plan on using for the make-over. The following days will not be easier but I'm hoping to relaunch my new blog by the end of the week. :)

I'm trying out the photos now. Wish me luck! :)

Whilst my blog is on its way to becoming fabulous (no, I'm just kidding), on its way to a new look, I decided to post some "distractions" as I work on it. As you all know, I am a huge fan of penguins and pigs (thus, the title of my blog). So I have decided to distract you all with, you guessed right!

 

My children! Hope you enjoy the cute pictures. ^@^

look closely

This will be the last time you will see my blog in its old form. I have decided to give my blog a major make-over and come back to one of my first loves: writing. In case you miss how the old one looked, I took a picture!

Goodbye, flying pigs & penguins! Welcome..
