Back to being blue

If you first came to our site last month you are probably noticing that we’ve changed our color scheme from pink to blue. Of course those who are regulars on our site know that the switch is back to blue. For those who missed why we went pink, it was in support of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We hope that you no longer look at something pink and just think about the color, because while there have been great strides in diagnosing and treating breast cancer there’s still a long way to go.

When I started this blog two years ago our color scheme was mainly green and we kept that color through a theme change, but we switched our color scheme to blue back in May of last year. Our beloved Dodgers didn’t get past the NLCS again but we’re still going to root for Dodger Blue when the new season gets started with spring training next year.

We could switch to a red theme for the coming holidays, although of course not nearly as early as the beginning of November, but that’s something Peng and I will have to think about as the month goes on. For now we’re talking about maybe changing the theme we use for our blog and we’re looking at the different layout and color schemes available. I really like the three column layout we’re using now with sidebars on the left and right, but since we’ve used it for over a year we’re definitely thinking about a change by the end of the year.

Speaking of changes to the blog, Peng has already said he’s looking into bringing some of the articles from his old blog to this site but he’s pretty busy so we’re having to talk about how much work will be involved with getting at his old articles and republishing them here. It’s not an easy task so I told him to take his time even to get his old posts available for browsing by the two of us so I can help find articles I’d like him to republish. We won’t make any promises of a timetable for getting it done, but we’re glad to see that at least one person would like us to try to make them available here.
