Buddy And The Better Blog Style?

Jul 26

Posted by

Well firstly, what do you guys think of the new style to the blog? Whee had a few people say the old background flashed a little too much and hurt their eyes. Also, after losing Nibbles it was upsetting to have his bootiful fluffy faced portrait in our header so whee designed a new one! Whee hope you like it!

Now I thought you might like to see these pigtures of me. Whee have been stuck inside for so long with it being soo hot. Me and Basil have been waiting for it to cool down. (and tearing up all our bedding and chucking the hay out of the cage in protest about lack of grass access. Running on the carpet isn’t the same, it doesn’t taste as nice for starters!)

And it is finally cool enough for us to spend a little while outside!! Here is me enjoying some time in the garden today!

So it’s your Birthday!?

Please let us know what you think of the new style and be completely honest!

Have a Super Saturday!

Buddy

EDIT – Trying a new header with pictures of us instead now, let us know what you think!

    I like the new style. We’re busy changing too. We don’t have a good reason, SHE just likes to change things!
    I like the lilac background and the piggy-prints are fun.

    hey buddy, the new style is nice although i miss the old style. motu baby gets furious every time i put him inside the cage.. he tries to bite open his way out.. at any given chance he gets out and runs off to the balcony.. i made several outdoor homes for him… plus he loves sitting on top of the flower pots.. it’s been raining a lot here so stays pretty cool most of the times.. buddy, you and your friends are welcome to visit us…

    you all have a super saturday too!

    It’s…okay. I understand about Nibbles, but I miss your fun header very much. I never had a problem with the yellow, the lilac seems so…purple. The new layout is basically the exact opposite of what you had going on before. The other one was…funner.

    Hope you have a fun Saturday. 🙂

    Its very nice but it needs a bit more fun and you guys are fun so the header need to match that sense of fun,but we understand the need for change and your mummy can change it with the seasons if she wants to,glad you got to go out the hot weather didn’t stop me as mummy let me out really early and the back garden is in shade till mid day so it was quite cool.hope you get to go out again,have a great week end guys,xx Speedy and Rachel

    Hi Buddy! I love the lilac background and little piggy toe prints – WAY fun……but I have to admit I miss the colorful drawings of you guys at the header – maybe your little hoomans or your Mum could do a new drawing including Nacho….?? They are such good artists! Anyway, I love it like it is too………I also love the way you’re smiling inside your tiny tent while playing outside. It’s been cooler here but I’m sure it won’t last….it’s still HOT summer – we just got a momentary break! Stay cool guys….

    Kitty Hugs, Sammy

    I actually miss the brighter colors and more FUN look that the old one had, this looks good too though, but it doesn’t have that playful “vibe” that the other one had. Barks and licks and love, Dakota

    I like the photo header better than cartoons, but I like a frequent change most of all!

    As far as the header goes, you do what’s right for you. We lost Kenzie in October and decided to keep the header with him in it. It’s a personal matter that only you can decide.

      Whee thought that the fact the little hoomans kept crying every time they saw the blog meant it was time to change. Whee have immortalized he’s fluffy little face on our Rainbow bridge page. Maybe in time it will become easier but right now, it hurts a lot. Whee think Kenzie is bootiful and keeping him in your header is a wonderful homage to him.

      Whee used the free online program Lunapic

      http://www133.lunapic.com/

      Just go to the ‘effect’ drop down and pick the third one, gradient blur. From there Mummy blurred two together, saved it, blurred another two together, saved it again and then blurred the two saved one’s together.

      Hope this helps!

    It sounds as though I’ve missed one header, but I like the one I see with your pigtures and names. I also like the colour of your background and the piggy prints.

      Whee like the purple too. It’s our Mummy’s favourite colour! Glad you like the new style. Whee thought the faces and names might help hoomans tell the differences in us!
