New Digs!

Posted on May 29th, 2007 by The SUBWAYblogger in This just in

Ehh ehh…how ’bout this? Not too shabby, huh.

For those that didn’t notice, SUBWAYblogger’s got some new digs. I complete redesign. The holiday weekend (right at the very end) inspired me to make a major update.

It’s been almost a full year (in August) since SUBWAYblogger was born, so we figured it was time for an update. However, it did not come without major hesitation. We were really in love with out old look, but we thought it was time to grow up.

The old look was a little “beginner” looking…sort of. We made a lot of customized touches, but it still just looked like a side hobby. We’ve decided to try to take this “thing” to the next level, and really do something. We’ve got a very modest following, and we’d like to keep it going. One day, we hope to be one of the better known NYC blogs. We want to be a part of that stable of greatness, and that’s no easy task.

So, first things first, it was time for SUBWAYblogger.com to become a grown-up. Gasp!

We’ll never become a commercialized sellout blog, but turning a buck would not be the end of the world. So, we are aiming to make the site a little more blog advertising friendly.

Last, but certainly not least, we’d like to thank all of our loyal readers, commenters, and even haters. You’re what has made us a minor league success!

Happy blogging.

I miss the old look, but this is nice to move forward with. I always look forward to your posts, SUBWAYblogger, especially when I’m away with home. Believe me, returning to the city one kisses the MTA’s feet — especially if they’ve been trapped in Philly with no car and had no choice but to rely on godforsaken SEPTA…

Amasa-

Thanks for your input. Yeah, we miss the old look too. Unfortunately, the old template was not very suitable for growth.

We’ve actually been working on this for almost 2 months now. It was not something we took very lightly. We really wanted to find something very simple, clean, and inviting. But, we still wanted to stay close to our roots.

So this was what we came up with! Of course, we will be making cosmetic changes here and there since it’s always a work in progress.

Thanks for reading and commenting!

I’m a huge fan! It looks really professional. Did you do it yourself?
