Hooked on tweaking

I’ve been fairly happy with the 3 column layout of the site. It doesn’t look like many other blogs, and I haven’t seen ONE golf blog that looks similar.

BUT I am about to start a bit of a “tweaking” period for the site. I’m going to play with some different column sizes and most likely a fixed width. I’m still researching the average screen resolution of my visitors to determine the size, but I’ve found that something like 98% of most web surfers are at 800×600 or higher. So if you’re smaller than that you’ll soon be SOL here (unless you like scrolling).

The first tweak is not a visible one but it has already been implemented. This tweak is adding a link to the golf ball graphic at the top of all pages to the main page. You no longer have to click on “blog home” to get to the home page. You can click the golf ball. Thanks to skostiuk for that suggestion.

The 2nd tweak (also a skostiuk idea) was to move the recent posts up higher. That only made sense.

There will be more to come, so be aware you may see some slight changes. And once again, keep the suggestions rolling in!
