I’ve done it again- rearranged the blog furniture! I was tired of all the nagging little nuisances of the old template (which was actually a combination of two different ones). I just loved the old header, and hate to part with it, but I couldn’t make it work with this theme.
I like the sleekness of this one. I have a small beef- the sidebar loads first, and if it takes long, the main content doesn’t load for a while. I HATE that! Why is it programmed that way? I want it to zip around like Zero Halliburton luggage, but instead it lags like an old wooden chest of drawers…
How about you? Do like this look or do you prefer the old ladybug in a picture frame look? Does it take too long to load? I’d really like to know.
Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.

I like your new design better!! 🙂

For me, the background loaded first, then the sidebar, then the main content. And it was FAST compared to the other template! I like this! And, I do miss the ladybug. OH, she’s there - just smaller. OK!! Best of both of them!

Keep ’em coming! 🙂

This looks very nice but I liked your old one too. I love lady bugs. If I ever get a tattoo it will be of a lady bug. LOL

I like it. Sleek, more professional, easy to navigate and read but you have kept your unique color scheme and lady bug to identify your blog. Strong work. Looks very custom!

Ok, I must admit, I was kinda attached to your old template BUT I do like this new one a LOT. I had to laugh though, that I’m not the only one that loved your big ladybug. At least she’s still there. You should use a ladybug as your - is this the right word? - favicon. Oh, and your page loads fast for me. Very nice job, you have such a GREAT eye for design! 🙂

It didn’t take long to load at all, and I do think it looks very cool!

Like the look. Would not have even thought about the loading time if you had not mentioned it and that is something I would notice if it took too long. (I have a patience problem) 🙂

Hello there! I started dropping here about 2 days ago after I joined Christian Cards but I could really see the progress. I like this template and it’s very cool to the eyes.
Have a great Thursday and God bless. 😉

I liked your old design and it was unique. But this one is sleek and, at least for me, it loads a lot faster. Nice job!

I like your header and it did not take long to load at all :o)

I do like this theme. It’s simple and elegant. But having said that, I liked the lady bug better. I love lady bugs. lol

I like this theme-it looks really good but I miss the lady bug. Maybe you could put a ladybug somewhere on your side bar.
August 28, 2008 at 12:05 pm
Excellent template! I really like your new design. 😀

This template is really beautiful…I think it’s an improvement over the previouis design.
August 28, 2008 at 2:41 pm
Wow, this looks great - loaded really fast for me.
August 28, 2008 at 9:09 pm
Hey! I love your new look too. It loaded fine over here.
August 28, 2008 at 9:18 pm
I am so appreciative of your input, dear friends. (((pals)))
It looks like the new Daisy Bug blog theme is here to stay. I sure miss the shiny ladybug from the old theme, but I’ll keep it as an Entrecard.
Thanks again!
