Possumblog

I prefer a sidebar on each side, with the text in the middle.

So there! ;)

Seriously, it's your site, do it the way you like it.

Some blogs try for quantity, others, quality.

I try for width.

No particular preference for me, but scanning just now, I can understand how he might prefer it that way.

That boy always be looking for distractions, anyway.

I like it on the right so I don't have to turn my head the 3 nano-degrees to read the post.

Either way is fine with me because I can see the whole page width on my screen. I guess if I had a smaller screen it might cut off the right side. Do it however YOU like it best.

We had tornado warnings and hail today... probably headed your way.

So far, it seems the public prefers things the right way, so it'll stay that way until it changes again.

And Kathy, the rains already here, and they're predicting bucketsful. Good night to get out and go to church!

I vote for text on left. When it was on the right, it seemed like it didn't wrap or something, and I kept wanting to scroll over to finish the line (must have been a vast right-wing conspiracy!).

Info panel on the left, so that your comments will be leaning to the right (or right of center if you prefer).

Center would be nice-- I like this better but seem to be in the minority.

Either way is okay, but what I really want is for it to look exactly like it always has. This just doesn't shout Possumblog to me the way the old template did.

No, I don't like change very much.

I prefer the info to the right if I am forced to choose. I agree with Jordana about the change business.

My big question is why the calendar?

Oh, and my seafaring ancesters would be glad to know you use clean burning, renewable whale oil.

Really doesn't matter to me. It's easy to read either way. But, you REALLY need a good picture of a possum for your header.

I am not sure why, but I think I prefer the text on the right.

Well--now I'm more confused than EVER!

To my eyes, I suppose I like the sidebar to the right. I do miss my old header--I briefly had it up when I first was messing around with the new place, and I might mess around some more with it tomorrow or Friday.

Sarah, the calendar is just part of the template I was using--it's somewhat handy, especially for those of us who can't remember what day it is.

Pammy, possums are much too hideous for polite company to have to see them.

My old training tells me it's proper to put the sidebar to the right. We read left to right.

We come here to see what you have to write, not references to other people.

And, if it makes you no difference, I would defer to Dr. Smith, who spends many hours reading student work.

He is an avid reader of yours. Why not count his preference? Besides, how many times has he covered you on the Thursday Three, hon?

Now I've been as unpleasant a commenter as those at Michael Totten's and elsewhere who like to tell you how to dip your free ice cream.

Not references to other people!? So, it really IS all about me!! Cool.

As for deferring to Dr. Smith--he is the reason I moved the sidebar back over to the right. I'm still working on the box at the top, so he might just have to be PATIENT on that score!

"Unpleasant"? Miss Janis, you couldn't be unpleasant no matter how hard you tried!

Wanna bet?

Janis, only SOME of you read left to right all the time. :P

I like the sidebar on the right too - just seems correct.

Oh, and Terry, if you use whale oil for power, I suggest based on this story that you head out to the hamptons to stock up.

Not on your life, Miss Janis!

And Dan, the Hamptons are too ritzy for my taste--I just go down to the creek and catch mine.

Despite my sidebar(s) being stacked left, I prefer yours stacked right.

I have no logical explanation.

I believe it was Jean Paul Sartre who said, "We don' need no steenkin' logic!"
