So, I have been contemplating changing my blog’s theme for some time. Played around with the Monochrome theme, which I liked a lot. Eventually decided against it because I felt it was too similar in style to the Inove theme I had not too long ago.
I have finally settled on this one – Tarski. I am still not sure about it though. I like a lot of things about it – its neatness, the fonts, the overall cleanness of it. What I don’t like is that it does not allow me to upload large photos, something that Vigilance (my previous theme) allowed me to do. I also don’t like the fact that it does not allow an optional 2-column for my widgets. Instead, I have an option to add widgets to my footer – something I don’t plan on doing. I hate footer widgets.
So, basically what I am right now is confused.
I need an opinion from you, dear regular readers of my blog…do you like this new theme or do you think I should revert back to my original look?
I also need a new header. Again, if you have header/theme suggestions for me, please leave a comment. I am willing to give all suggestions a decent shot 🙂
Post update: There’s something very weird going on with the comment display. I will try to fix it later on today. If it still does not fall into place, I am just gonna revert back to Vigilance 🙁
Another update: Comments are working fine now, so bring on the feedback.
I concur… this is a very clean layout, but the stark whiteness with little to offer in the way of a header graphic or anything else leaves it feeling way to clean. I feel like I am visiting a hospital room or something – 🙂
@Ray: I recently changed my blog look again because I realized that e blog looked great on laptop and desktop screens but was virtually unreadable on my iPad and probably the mobile devices as well. Hence I decided to play it safe and go without a background.
I know it is a bit clinical looking, but it will have to do for now, I guess 🙁
Gone back to Vigilance. Majority rules here on my blog!
I decided to retain the milky-white Nirma soap look from the Tarski blog, and change my header.
I think this change should satisfy my design instincts for now 🙂
Honestly this one doesn’t look any better than your previous one but maybe if you can do something with the header then this one may become a nice one….. and I am not at all good at headers so you can safely keep me out of list of people with suggestions 😀
Ya Dhiman, I really need to get hold of a nice header…this one sucks 🙁
Hey. I don’t normally leave comments, but I just wanted to say thanks for the great information. I have a blog too, though
I don’t write as good as you do, but if you want to check it out here it is. Thanks again and have a great day!

I like the vigilance more 🙂
But this is very clean, to me too clean!!!
this one is simple and nice.. but vigilance is very good for personilizing the blog… we can change the colour and have lot of options…
I like this… but vigilance is also good..
That’s true Kanagu, Vigilance is very open to customization
Looks like Vigilance is the popular option, will wait for a few more opinions and then probably revert back to Vigilance…
