Phoenix Real Estate Guy Gets a Face Lift

 Pin It
by on January 16, 2008

Well, not THE Phoenix Real Estate Guy, that would be me. And though I could probably use a face lift, it’s the blog that is getting one.

So if you are one of the 697,942 254 who read via a feed reader, click on through and take a peek.

Same sexy header (it’s a branding thing you know), but a new theme. I eliminated a lot of the junk in the sidebars (just for you Kris), and cleaned out a bunch of code and plug-ins that weren’t necessary. Hopefully the speed will be improved as it was beginning to get very bogged down.

There will be more tweaks and sidebar purging to come, but this is the gist of it. For now. Who knows what next week holds.

It’s entirely possible that I broke something. If you see something wonky, please let me know.

Comments

We always appreciate your comments! Phoenix Real Estate Guy uses two commenting systems, Facebook and LiveFyre. LiveFyre is the most robust system (and easy to use!). It allows you to login with Twitter, Facebook, Google+ LinkedIn, OpenId, LiveFyre and as a "Guest". I recommend getting a LiveFyre account, it has some great features (just click the LiveFyre button when you write your comment).

 

BLOG COMMENT POLICY: We respectfully ask that you use your real name (first name only is fine) and not use keywords (Why no keywords?). The only real "comment rules" are be civil -- no personal attacks -- and no advertising. (See the full comment policy here). Opinion and debate are welcome, but attack the idea, not the person.

I like this flavor a lot, Jay. Well done. I also like the way you've cleaned up a bunch the side bars.

One suggestion - You might want to alphabetize your blogroll. It was really hard to find my blog in the list. Oh, wait. That's because IT IS NOT THERE!

Great theme. Nice. Clean. Easy to use. I'd been meaning to tell you about your old theme taking way to long to load. I guess you were already aware of it.

Blog looks good Jay - definitely a little cleaner (not that there was anything wrong with the old look :) ). Thanks
