Our Website’s New Look
by Jake on Jan.18, 2007, under News
Well….what-da-ya-think? I’ve still got to move some stuff around, finish filling in some content, and get the sponsor’s information loaded up – but I’m pretty happy with it so far … not real sure about that header yet though.

You mean this test piece?

Yeah…that one never passed Bonnie approval. It seemed that the majority of people really hated to see ye\’ol cat head go away so I decided to keep it. As we improved and got more serious, I wanted a logo that reflected that. Then I realized, after polling several people, that the existing tom cat would be more intimidating and serious as we become more and more of a threat on the race course.

I really like the look of the website. You must have spent a lot of time figuring out website and blogging. Do you use WordPress just for code writing the post it on your own site or are you using their website as well?
Later,

Dan, Thanks. I use the WordPress code running on my website that is hosted by Ipowerweb. I’m not really that adept at programming the script for the templates, so I found a new one that is close to what I liked and started to customize the existing colors, graphics, and layout. The Tiga template that this site now originated from can be found here:

I’ve really come to like the WordPress package. I can blog from anywhere by sending an email. Together with flickr (Yahoo), I can even drop a photo in the email and it will automatically format the entire blog, time stamp it, and post it to the website with a properly resized picture. It makes it super easy to keep things updated.
