Is there no one willing to redesign my blog???

Lincoln Adams | October 3, 2007 @ 8:00 am

Eventually I’m gonna have to do some redesigning to fix some of the rendering problems this blog has. The biggest issue is that I can’t keep my footer under all three columns. As long as the middle column is longer than my sidebar, the issue won’t present itself, but since some of my posts can be very short, that isn’t always the case. The end result is that the footer gets snaked under the sidebars, crapping out the whole page. I’ve been able to workaround this issue by removing the sidebars from my single post pages, but eventually I need to find a better solution.

I’ve been looking around for blog design consultants willing to clean up this site, and found one called the Blog Studio. It seems to come highly recommended, so I sent them an email outlining what I’d like done and requested a price quote.

They blew me off.

At first I thought maybe they were really busy, so I gave it another week or so, and then sent them another email.

They blew me off again.

Now that’s just rude. They must think I have no money, or they cater only to the rich crowd of A-list bloggers who can afford to spend serious coins to have their sites redesigned. Snobs. Damned, damned snobs. All I wanted was a price quote or some general idea of what it would cost to fix the coding on my site, and if I didn’t have enough now, I could work up some O.T. and maybe use some Christmas money to get this thing done. But God forbid I should even be given the courtesy of a reply.

Well I certainly wouldn’t recommend them now. :tongue: Nate Whitehill recently started a blog design business as well, which received major attention ever since he redesigned John Chow’s blog, so I might take a look at one of his packages instead, even though he blew off my last email as well. I’m gonna assume he was busy though. I hope. Maybe…? Please……..? …………………….

Hey Lincoln, I was wondering what happened from our last email… I never received another email from you after our first correspondence.

We would LOVE to help you with redesign. Could our initial communication have been the misfortune of a lost email? Anyway, please let me know should you be further interested in our services, and I am sorry if it was my fault that the email was not received. Hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks,
Nate

Good to hear from you Nate!

I think I sent you an email right before you went on an away trip if I remember right, so it wouldn’t have surprised me if I didn’t hear from you for a while. I’ll send you another email later! :shades:

Actually I think your site is easy on the eyes. I’ve never seen this theme before.

Thanks for the compliment! It’s actually based on the popular Tiga theme, but I spent about a year hacking it, changing the colors, look and rendering. I just wish I could fix the footer. :pullhair:

Care to comment?
