A New Look - Ar ei Newydd Wedd

After a week of stuggling for the first time with html, I think I've finally stumbled on an effective layout for my blog. With the Welsh and English side by side, I hope it will make navigation easier for both sets of readers, avoiding the need for any annoying scrolling. Additionally, I guess it gives those English readers who are curious a chance to see what the equivalent looks like in Welsh.

For those interested in computer matters (and who want to laugh at the hammer and tongs way I changed things around) - I found a template for a 3 column blog online, where the extra column was an additional left hand sidebar. I then altered the html of the original sidebar to match the post column, and reduced the size of both to 380 px (if I remember correctly).

I then set up a text box in the old side bar, copied all my Welsh posts in there, and again went back to the source to alter the appearance of the text. Here remains the one glitch - I copied the post about 'dwindling numbers' first, and couldn't change the line spacing for love or money. When I copied the other posts later, it seemed to work fine. Any thoughts why? Also, I'm not sure how well the page looks on smaller monitors, so any problems, do let me know.

Thanks are due to Amanda from BloggerBuster.com for the original template, and for some of the Maes-e.com fraternity for some advice on the project.

With a bit of luck, a 'real' post will follow sometime tonight.
