New Blog Cosmetics

July 28, 2019March 25, 2022 Jürgen Kraus (Calgary, Canada)

I changed the blog layout to a single column for reasons of diversification and for visually distinguishing us (a bit) from the plethora of review/promotional blogs.

So what has changed and what will it do?

Each post in the single-column layout has a widescreen frontispiece for economic scrolling.
Each post announcement is accompanied by the executive summary as teaser for quick information (underneath each photo).
Since the single-column format shows fewer posts per screen, the 30 most recent posts are listed in the (right) sidebar for a quick overview.
This format makes the posts less dependent from each other and therefore allows for a wider variety of contributions (music, technical etc.). Which makes us even less dependent from manufacturers/distributors/sellers.

I hope you like it. Suggestions welcome!
