Why all the blog background changes you might ask? It's because I can never seem to settle on finding a background (3 column) that really 'grabs' me ya know? I do engine searches often to find backgrounds that I hope fit my (and my husbands) hearts with how Jesus is the center of it....ya know what I mean? I want our blog background to visualize who we are, what we stand for, what we are about. Of course that is obvious by our blog title and by reading through our posts, but the background image is important to me just the same.
I think it's about that time.....time for me to pay someone to create a look, the look, that I feel represents Christ in my (Oops, and my husband's) life. Something different, unique, and designed for our blog with an image that reflects Christ in us; the image which I can't find anywhere online, but is in my head (kind of). I kind of know what I'm looking for but not exactly. I think I'll know when/if I find it. It's the same feeling you have as you seek out your son or daughter's name before (or after) they are born....once you find/hear the name, you say 'That's it! That's it!! This will be our son/daughter's name.' And that's how it is with getting my blog 'just so'.
So anyway, that's why you see my blog change backgrounds so often. It's not because I'm bored, because believe me, I have things to do (cough, cough....the dishes still haven't cleaned up after themselves tonight. What's up with that?!) But it (and this may sound odd to some) just bothers me that I don't have the Christ theme that I desire in my heart for my (Oops again.....dang it!) OUR blog. So please bare with me. If you know of a reputable, yet reasonably priced, blog designer that can assist me with personalizing a 3 column background with Jesus as the focus, then please, by all means, let me know........
Oh, and this background here, with the snow?.....I'm just too tired to keep looking right now for other backgrounds, so it'll be this way until.....until....who knows really...... Going to bed now; it's 2 AM here. Good night!
People probably wonder the same thing about me, so don't worry! Like you said when you find it you'll know it! Unfortunately, I have no recommendations for a layout designer, but I did post yesterday about a GREAT button designer. Don't know if that helps or not. Good luck with the quest!
ReplyDeleteI have been trying to change my blog too, and have some standand choices, but how do you search for them through a search engine and are they sometimes free? By the way, thanks for inspiring me again. I joined "Higher Callings" too! Carol
ReplyDeleteI like your background. Very Christmasy.
ReplyDeleteLOL! You are too funny. I understand what you are saying completely. I am still not sure about mine yet.
ReplyDeleteMy hubbie might could help you. He is really busy though building a few websites for others but if you don't find someone until then I will check it out with him. My suggestion is that you draw something up that will express some of what is in your head.
Blessings,

Sarah,
ReplyDeleteI found a company called Tekeme Studios that took my ideas and turned it into the look I was wanting. They are great folks, reasonably priced and share our faith. You can find them by clicking through the icon on my blog.
However, I also rather enjoy your ever-changing blog style. It's always fun to see what pops up here!
