New Pen Addict Layout

I decided to change things up a bit with the design of The Pen Addict.  The changes aren't overly drastic - it's more like a fresh coat of paint.  Most of the sidebar layout is the same, except that my email address is now found under the about page (which is a work in progress), and the monthly archives now have their own page as well.

There may be a few more changes throughout the day, so let me know if you come across anything weird.

Big thanks to Pen Addict reader Luke for the great new banner photo!

Update #1: I moved the Categories under the Archive page as well.  Will anyone miss the category cloud on the front page?  I thought the wall of text was getting a little obnoxious.

Update #2: Categories are now back on the front page.  As much space as it takes up, I think it is an integral part of the site.  It looks like the comments bear that out as well.

We Have the Facts & We're Voting Yes

Thanks again to everyone who expressed their interest in becoming a Pen Addict contributor.  The turnout was overwhelming, and for that I am very grateful.  At this point, I have chosen two new contributors who I hope to introduce and have posting within the next few weeks.  The decision was not even remotely easy, but I am excited about what is to come.

Stay tuned!

Just...Wow

I got a ton of email responses to yesterday's post, and I am in the process of weeding through everything.  Everyone who sent me an email will get a response, but it may be Sunday/Monday before I get through them all.  Thank you to everyone who is interested, and if you are and haven't sent me an email you still have time to do so.

I should be back to regularly scheduled programming with Ink Links on Saturday and a fresh review on Monday.
