A new beginning

This official blog post was meant to be published yesterday, but because of an unexpecting issue, it had to be delayed for today. You might not be aware of this, but the above mentioned problem has brought shame upon memltan100.blogspot.com. For those wondering why, let me tell you a little funny fact..

About 2 days ago, I've told my buddy Peter, from The Making Money Experiment, that I will be launching my blog yesterday. It was more like a promise I made and vowed to respect it. I also instructed Peter that, if I will fail to meet my deadline, then he is free to make fun of me. I think it's obvious what happened next, right? Well, yeah, I failed miserably in keeping my promise, so now I'm a laughing stockmltan100.blogspot.com. I lost that bet..That's the reason why I've said I'm ashamed. Funny stuff, ain't it?

Ok, let's get to the real point of this article, anyways..I would like to announce my blogs' official launch! As you can see, I have started a new blog, from scratch. But wait, who am I? Haven't said anything about me, so far. I could start doing this right away, but there's already a "About Me" page on this blog, from where you can find out more info about the guy behind the .Net and about Wallachian Blogger.Net, as well.

What I'd like to do next, though, is to tell you a few things about the modifications I've brought to this blogs' design and who did them ( clearly not me, as I'm not that good at working with HTML or CSS codes. That's why I have asked the help of a better coder, in the first place ). To keep things short and sweet, as I don't want to bother my 1 or 2 readers with too many useless details, here is the list with all the tweaks which were made to my blog:

1. My designer has changed the font and size of both my articles' titles and body's content, because he considered that now it's easier to read them.

2. He also changed some of the templates' colors, adding a bit of blue, which is one of my fave colors ( hope there isn't too much of it, though mltan100.blogspot.com ).

3. Next, the header has also been changed, with one selected by both of us and modified by him ( you can take a look at it and tell me what you think, by dropping a quick and short comment ).

4. 3 more 125X125 ad spots were added, below the ones already existing ( you can never know when an extra advertising spot might actually prove useful! ).

5. And last, but least, my designer has replaced the "Posted by" tag, with "Scribbled by", as per my suggestion. Oh, and to mention that he was nice enough to actually give me a bonus: he added some small stars, which appear next to each posts' link, in the "Recent Posts" area ( and in a few more spots. The stars are quite visible, so there shouldn't be a problem in spotting them ) and fixed a bug in my blogs' archive. Overall, I consider he has done a pretty neat job, don't you think? Kudos to ThemeLib.Com!

Yep, the guy from ThemeLib Dot Com has helped me customizing the design. And since I'm referring to him in this lines, I would also like to thank him, for being here when I needed him. So, thanks bud! I really appreciate the amount of time and dedication you've put in, to complete all the tasks I gave, in time. To all the others: if you ever need a good and speedy designer/coder, then why not to give NHC ( the owner of ThemeLib ) a try? I'm sure he'll be willing to give you a hand mltan100.blogspot.com.

Hmm..that's about all I have to say for now. I would like to bring this article to an end, so not to be too long and bore you to death. I do hope you'll like my humble little blog and that you'll visit it or subscribe to its RSS feed, whenever you feel like doing so ( the blog is 24 hours/day, 7 days/week and 365 days/year online ( except when I'm doing some maintenance to it, or when the server goes down, do to technical problems ( not that it will happen that often, but just in case )).

Thank you very much for dropping by and reading this article! I wish a good day and have fun!

    It seems it's official now: WB has finally gone live, yahoooooo!!!

    You're extremely lucky that I don't have the time (yet) to make fun of you as promised (damn, now you could make fun of me since I also didn't keep my promise...). I'm currently quite busy with creating a website for some of my friends. They want to promote their rock band and asked me for my advice, hehe. :)

    Congratulations to your official launch with your great looking blog. It fascinating to see what's really possible with Blogger.com as underlying platform. I really like the template and your designer has done good work, not bad my friend! But you know, content is king...! ;)

    I'm looking forward to see your fresh postings coming in! I wish you good luck with Wallachianblogger.net and may you get many readers in the future (I'll do my best to help you whenever I can).

    See you soon my friend,
    Querblogger

    Hehe, yes, my dear friend, it is as official as it can be: Wallachian Blogger is live and kickin'!

    Well, well, what do I hear? You too have failed to keep your promise, huh? Then, I guess we should both make fun of each other..I see that you're making quite a name for yourself: people start to come to you and ask you to build sites for them. Very nice! Keep it going! You never know when you'll gonna become a webdesigner, too, apart from being a blogger and internet marketer ;)

    Thanks for the encouraging words, bud! I'm also pleased by how things went so far ( the new design implementation, all those minor tweaks etc ) and I hope that WB will get some good traffic and have a loyal readership base..All this thanks to the king ( content, that is ), which I'll write it here.

    I'll soon start posting new articles ( I now have over 100 article drafts, titles and ideas, which are ready to be published, once I polish them a bit more ;) ). So, stay tunned for a good bi-daily read! New posts will be written once every 2 days!

    Have a nice day, my friend!
    Tiberius
    PS: Will send you a quick mail, to give you the link to my ( not yet finished ) dating site, to tell me what you think about it :)
