Greating DU,

I would like for you to please stop by and have a look at the new Bush's America.

I wanted to make it a hub for blog readers, because I have my blog on it as well as feeds from other progressive blogs.

Please go and take a peek please...

1. Great look! Great blog!

Who hosts your site? Is it expensive?

Can you walk me through the redesign process (for the DU Blog Box column)?

2. Thanks!

I have a server in Ill that I host it on...

It is on the Content Managment System Drupal (http://www.drupal.org)

Redesign is a pain the ass!

First, I had to move it from my old system to the new one. I was on b2Evolution(b2e), good blog, very limited... To convert the 790 posts over to the new system I had to bring up a WordPress(WP) database, because there is a b2e to WP and then from WP to Drupal because there is no b2E to Drupal.

Then it is a matter of cranking out the theme...

The feed on the side is a modual in Drupal (One of the reasons I moved, to offer more content to my 18 readers.)

4. I'm considering changing blogger.com skins.

But that means recoding my template for font colors, sizes, etc.

3. looks good - great blog

1 suggestion, personally I think black fonts on colored backgrounds would be easier to read.

great stuff!
