A New Look for JAD!
It’s been a while since I’ve refreshed things around here, and I thought I’d do a little WordPress spring cleaning/organizing. I’m still in the process of getting things laid out just right, but all the regular material is still here. My goal is to make the loads of daily content (almost four years’ worth!) more accessible beyond clicking through page after page of old posts. I’m even working on alphabetical and release year menus. Wow!
For now, I’ve broken out a few categories, and incorporated a slider that will contain the latest couple of posts as well as featured articles and projects from the past. A lot of this stuff has been buried once a couple weeks pass, so it’s good to get it back on the front page.
If you’re looking for the classic JAD experience, just click either Blog Archive on the main menu, or the Latest Posts bar. Both will take you straight to the blog feed.
Stick around, and excuse the dust, as I’ll probably move the couch around a few more times before I’m satisfied.
Sounds like a lot of work! Thanks for all you do Rob.
Thanks to you all for reading and commenting! I need to do a better job of getting on on these conversations. I’ve not been a good host. 🙂
Looking good already 🙂 WordPress is a very powerful tool and you’ll be able to tailor it to meet your needs. Be sure to back everything up as you go along though to make sure that you don’t lose anything should plugin go awry.
Yeah, I’ve had a few crashes over the last couple years. Thankfully my hosting service has easy restore points set up each day. Saved my bacon more than once. I still do my own backups too.
I’d give this one a “Like” or a “Thumb’s Up” if either were available. I’m gonna love being able to easily see the old posts!
Thanks! I’m still working on getting links to old posts in order.
Cool work!
Thanks! Look for improved navigation soon.
Great job on the site! It’s got a slick “toy collector” look to it (hard to explain).
Thanks! Hopefully folks eventually find it easier to find which figures have been covered. Its coming…
