Well it was bound to happen. I had started with a pretty clean website and gradually over time it became a little (or a lot) cluttered. As someone that fancies themselves a purist, particular when it comes to visual things, it was starting to grate on me.
To make matters worse, my friend Ron Rapp just did a makeover of his site a few months back and it’s so clean I can’t tell if it’s more rewarding looking at it or reading it. It’s total eye candy.
So I spent the last several months lamenting about what I wanted to do with iFLYblog. My other site – fixedwingbuddha.com is pretty modern and setup to my liking for it’s mission. This site….not so much.
I ended up splurging for a $50 theme over at themeforest and after about five hours of wrestling with FTP clients, zip files, plugins, and the like, it is up and running as you see it here. Oh, there are plenty of tweaks needed, but I’ll tackle those over the next coming weeks. Cold weather has stricken Ohio so there’s not much to do any way.
My hope is the new wrapper for my writing will make the experience more enjoyable and less distracting.

Extremely clean. Like it even better than mine, especially on mobile devices! Great work Brent. I dub thee the new king of the eye candy!
Ron,
Much appreciated! Of course, I have to claim you as the instigator of this little experiment.
Brent
Guilty as charged.
Happy blogging!
Very classy, Brent!
Now I’m going to go stew over how cluttered my blog looks in comparison…
Thanks Chris!
I like it! Very simple. If it was me, I’d think about having colored social media icons floating on the left of the page. With a black and white theme, you could color what you want viewers to take action on. -Kevin
