INTERNA

I feel like redesigning my website, turn the blog into the main index site, and add all the other website sections to a navigation bar at either the side or the top of the blog.

I was thinking of something clean and simple like The Nonist or Addictive Hobby - but I'm not quite sure yet how to do this and whether I should install WordPress.

Please leave a comment or email me if you have other spiffy redesign ideas and/or could (and want to) help me with the c0d3z.

Knowing me, it will probably take 5 years or more to create only a blog banner I'm entirely happy with. So do take your time.

Cheers!
