Zen-Dreams

As I said yesterday, Something big was prepared for this blog, and here it is, a new design.

This new design doesn’t only include a new layout, but also this brand new logo, a favicon and a real good looking design.

Why did I say something big ? Simply because I didn’t like previous one, in fact I realised that if I had to fall on a blog like the one I had before, i wasn’t sure I would have subscribed as it was nice to look at but hard to read.

My inspiration

First I would like to say that this new design is inspired from one of the most beautifull webdesign to me and also a great source for designers. To me this is a not a copy or a rip, it’s more something like a tribute to SmashingMagazine.

I was also inspired by the wordpress theme Coda, that uses a lot Mootools for effects, such as the one you can see on the right top sidebar.

And finally, I use Oxygen icons for most images you’ll find here. Simply because these are probably the most beautifull icons available for an Operating System environment.

The about section is inspired by what we can see on ProBlogger and introductory text was corrected by my lovely wife.

Final words

I just hope you will enjoy this design as much as I do, and do not hesitate to leave comments about what you think of my new design.
