“Your people will judge you on what you build, not what you destroy”, said the US President. But sometimes, to create, one had to destroy – for instance, his blog’s old design. Now came the difficult part. He hoped that in the two most important sections, there’d still be something good enough to write – Home, About.
until next time, whatcha think of the revamp? 🙂
Like this brand new theme. But is it possible to reduce the *Manuscrypts* image. It look tab bit bigger than required!
Rest is fab. +1 on that!

It is nice. you keep changing and reinveting yourself, while I remain in the same old template.
“Oops. Wrong page.”
Don’t like it as much as the older one :(…well I am partial to black and red so… 🙂
neat and clean…
Nicer.
I prefer this one.. have always preferred Whites 🙂
also any specific reason you kept the text on the header image? what theme are you using can always be mentioned at the footer of the page.
The new design feels a little tighter.. I like the old one better. This looks like a normal wordpress.com blog, the old one had a better feel to it.. +1 to Gaurav’s point black n red are your colours man.. why change?
PS: Just noticed the header keep changing cool =)
.and on the blog today “By Design” https://manuscrypts.com/?p=1500 🙂
nice it is.but also had a er..wrong page moment
my blog is also clamouring for change. its my blogs fifth year happy birthday tomorrow.
Topping! that panorama pic looks oddly familiar
I donno, I liked the dark version. Suited you :p
I like the white so much better. Manu times over. For one, ‘Heroes’ stays ‘Heroes’ and doesn’t mutate into anything communicable. 🙂 I second Mr.Swain on the ‘M’ in the masthead, though. Could do away with it, even. Since it already hovers king size over the ‘About’ just below.
Curious: That you in the yellow t-shirt surveying the landscape?
All change eventually gets accepted even if grudgingly.
The last template took into account that a vast majority of your readers is used to scan-reading left to right. That assumption is used in most blog templates even the flexible ones. The presence of a third left column stands in the way of that scanning (come on, you are a branding guy; surely you know how ads etc are designed for maximum impact!). The last one was visually more appealing too because the use of colour was clever and bold. But who am I to say? Your blog, your choice. Those who do not like it can always stop reading 🙂
That _is_ Acropolis in front of you, isn’t it? Hmm.
the header picture keeps changing? that’s the only wow factor here…
i liked the old one better, but never mind me….its your blog :))

I thought the earlier design was sleeker, one of the best I’ve ever seen in fact. But I do like the customization on the ‘M with pointy tail’ logo now with the feed curves on the side. It’s really cool.
Love it!!
