Blog "Re-Brand"

Posted 11/12/2009 6:22:15 a.m. by Daniel in Other

After well over a year of my dark, black theme, I decided it was time for something new. The old theme was something that I whipped up in a couple of hours one cold winters night, and never got around to updating again. The font was small and hard to read, the content was squashed, and man, there was a lot of crap on the page. It was also running on a very old version of BlogEngine.Net, and an upgrade was going to be a nightmare. So I decided it was time for “Daniels Blog – Version 2”.

I started off playing around with WordPress, as Kustom Page hadn’t even been born yet. It went well – it was easy to use, and seemed to do most of what I wanted. And then I started working on Kustom Page, and the whole WordPress conversion stopped.

So after hanging out with Blog Engine for 6 or so months longer, Kustom Page reached a stage where I could comfortably move this blog over, and not have to worry too much about it. Well that was my dream. Turned out some parts of Kustom Page made sense in “developer land”, but not so much in the real world. So I went back to the drawing board, fixed up the major flaws, and tried again.

And here we are. My whole blog, with every bit of content and comment that’s ever been posted, running on Kustom Page, with it’s shiny new theme!
