A little housekeeping

I needed to do a little housekeeping on the blog. I wanted to switch over to the Beta format so here it is. I've gone with the popular "minima" template with some slight modifications. As I figure out all of these tags, I'll make it more customized. Now I can finally put those post labels to good use.

Looks nice, Patrick!

One thing I haven't been able to figure out since switching over to the Beta is how to add buttons with a clickable link.

I see that you've done so with I and the Bird - can you explain how you did that?

Thanks!

First of all, let me say that this may not be the BEST way to do it...

In the screen where you can add links, I added a new one with the name as:

<img src="http://www.smokersdelightbbq.com/pics/blog/iandthebirdshortbannerolive.jpg" border="0">

This is HTML code that points to a graphic. the stuff between the "" is the URL to the graphic (I have a server where I store graphics).

Then for the link URL, you just put the URL of the web site. Let me know if this helps. If you need me to, I can send you a screenshot.

As a firm believer in less is more I must say I love the new look. Function over Form! Or, in this case, both!
