InvadingSAM Changes. What Happened?!

I believe everybody who properly visits my blog, when I advise them to, has spotted some minor and some major differences from the original design that had spent almost a year as the template of InvadingSAM. These changes were crucial to maintain the modern look of the blog it hopefully has now.

Of course, If you’ve followed me on twitter, you probably know why I did this. Every little change of the blog was tweeted with a small review of the whys and hows...

 First of all – The template change. From a self-powered [Bli:p] domino madness, I’ve gone to the most simple of the simplest color/font schemes there is. This is due to the fact that [Bli:p] is a minimalist, thus needs to minimalize everything there is. Funny how I didn’t suspect this bizarrity earlier.

 Secondly – Headers and ‘share-ers’. The header of the blog had changed from a rather dull and ordinary typeface to a wild, but cheap-looking Persona Non Grata madness, when finally was changed to a minimalistic, one-colored, handwritten inscription. A lot better, I think. The share-ers of the blog are here to allow you to share me with the world and do it in the handiest way possible. Two in count, they all are here to spread your love to the world – the ShareThis app, which is located under ever blogpost allows you to share the blog you’ve just read with the world via largest of the share sites there are. The other one is located on right sidebar, just on the top, to redirect you to my personal facebook page.

 Thirdly – The 330X82 sidebar images. These are the most interesting innovations of the InvadingSAM changes. Each of these is a small representation of a certain element or a website of [Bli:p]s’. ’We’re going visual’ is the only website redirection, as it represents my Flickr page. The other five are something completely new and, I believe, quite awesome. These are the new sub-directories – each one of the pictures can get you to the first post of a series of the blog. A little bit ‘bout all of them.

 ‘Great People Great Art’ is the series of me telling you about the great artists and communities of the Internet. For now, only the first one, featuring Stencil Revolution, Indigo, Pahnl and Jerm IX, awaits, but more volumes shall be released soon.

 ‘As It Says On The Tin’ or rather ‘Economical Creativity’ is the series of long-ago-mentioned creativity blogs. They are here to support new-born graffiti artists, by telling them about some of my personal ways of reaching great ideas every time.

 ‘Why? When? How?’ is all about things worth thinking about, but are not quite related to a finished stencil of mine. All of them are essentially based on an old or unfinished idea or even a song and should be understood like a expanded explanation of an interesting thought.

 ‘Updates, Designs, Insights’ or rather ‘Cargoh –Made For-’ is everything Cargoh.com related. All of my ideas of sellable items go here.

(FYI – clicking the image brings you to the first (sometimes only) blogpost of the series. Some of them have only one of them, so no underneath-text gadget is needed, but the ones that do contain more than one blog are supported with the gadget including all of the posts)

 And last, but not least, ‘Desktop Backgrounds Available Here’ are the personal 10101 [Bli:p]s that everybody can obtain for personal use. All based on a stencil of mine, these buddies should keep your desktop looking ever-so-neat at all times.

 As you can see, some of these have something below them. These are the topics that each of the series contains – as stated – it should be as handy as it possibly can. Of course, the regular ‘That’s all there is’ widget is still there for people that like classics, but it has been relocated and now has taken place below the blog post.

 The remaining gadgets have been there ever since, and I believe, do not need any extra explanations with them.

 I’ve been working hard on the re-designing of InvadingSAM and I hope I’ve succeeded – the overused, maximalism has transformed into a light minimalism and is totally the thing you’d want me to look like, right? Some comments, tweets or PMs would be definitely wanted for this blog to look even better.

Hope you like it!
