Ok, the design is set for the most part. I slightly modified the header logo, and added the teal ribbon background I created today.
As mentioned when I started this redo project, there are major changes. They are as follows
The software has been changed from the extremely buggy and frustrating B2evololution to WordPress.
The entire look of the site has been changed – drastically! Colors, graphics, etc. It went from mostly being a theme with only a few of my own touches (i.e. a small header logo), to being more of my own style mixed in.
All YoVille tips and tricks have been removed. I just do not play anymore and the tips are very out-of-date.
Because of the change, tens of thousands of backed up spam comments were lost (yay!) Unfortunately, all of the old comments were lost, as well. I am sorry if yours was lost in the mix, it just was not possible to isolate the good comments from the spam.
New spam buster software was installed. Among these is a general spam busting plugin, as well as an advance captcha (which makes you solve a math problem…sorry, in advance, to my math challenged readers!)
This site was created on an alternate directory. But, to make it seemless, I will rename it back to my old directory so it will seem as if the blog never moved.
The old blog will completely disappear. But, I will archive it, sort of, so the old posts may be out there in search engines. Ideally I will remove it altogether.
As this post says, it is “almost done”. I am making it live in a few minutes. But I will still be working behind the scenes to perfect it over the next few days.
Thank you everyone for your patience!
