PupLove’s New Look

Posted on 14 January 2013 by AJ

I know. After so many of you commented and said you liked the look of PupLove as it was, I said I wasn’t going to re-design. Cut to: 36 hours later, and I’m sitting in front of my laptop, furiously coding for the new layout. Turns out, even the logo wasn’t safe!

I’m fickle like that.

There are a few tweaks I’d still like to make, but this is more or less it. (For now. It’s starting to look like every January, I decide it’s time for something new…) If you run into any issues or something looks funny on your end, let me know – I pulled an all-nighter, so there’s bound to be something I missed somewhere.

Thinking about a new look for your own blog? Let me know – I’m setting up some special prices for fellow pet bloggers!

I love how clean it looks and all the white space. It’s very contemporary.

I’m in awe of your creativity and fearlessness.

I think it looks great, even though I loved the old layout as well. As long as YOU like it, that’s really all that matters! I wish I had half your talent and skill!

Kristine, I tried *so hard* to keep the purple… it just didn’t work. I even got a second opinion from Jodi, and she wasn’t feeling it either. It had to go. I’m sorry!

I feel like what I said was “You can’t get rid of ALL the purple? CAN YOU??”

and then you were like “Gone.”

Then I begged and pleaded to keep cartoon Jack. That’s how I remember it anyways.

I *do* love the new look though.

Well, I think this looks lovely, but I’ve always thought all your designs are lovely.

It looks great! Playing with your design makes perfect sense – what better way to market your design business? This gives people the chance to see your work, which is far more than any business card could ever do.
