<p>Peter, a repeat customer requested for a wordpress template and a header to match the theme of his blog, Inverse ETF. Here is what I came up with.</p>

<p>As the name suggest, this is a blog makeover for my own <a title="LadyJava Food Paradise" href="http://foodiehunt.com">food blog</a>. I recently moved it from blogspot to wordpress and now publishing under it&#8217;s very own domain url. The change itself was over in one hour or so but the decision to move was the one that was dragging me as the blog had a PR3 attached to it. Anyhow, after careful consideration, I decided that to publish under a dot com was so much better in the long run.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what it looked before and after.  I&#8217;m also taking orders again for blog makeover (crossing fingers that time permits) so do contact me with your request.</p>

<p>Anne, owner of blog, <a href="http://vbeventz.blogspot.com">Violetblush</a>, was  easy to work with as she knew exactly what she wanted in terms design and colors.</p>
<p>There were also tonnes of things that Anne wanted to be implemented at her blog and I was only happy to indulge her as it also enabled me to showcase many different features that many of you might think is not possible with a blogspot blog.</p>

</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Here are the features that were implemented at her blog.</p>
<p><strong><em>1. Slider</em></strong></p>
<p>I have installed a different slider before for <a href="http://www.makanmakan-mariuca.com/">Mariuca </a>and <a href="http://www.restnrileks.com/">Rizal</a> but Anne wanted something similar to one that she saw at another blog. This slider, with navigation buttons, will display thumbnails of images that can be linked to certain post in her blog or any other site as well.</p>
<p><div id="attachment_1460" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://ladyjavacreations.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/inthespotlight.gif" rel="lightbox[1457]" title="in the spotlight"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1460" title="in the spotlight" src="http://ladyjavacreations.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/inthespotlight-300x103.gif" alt="in the spotlight" width="300" height="103" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Slider with Navigation and linked images</p></div>
<p><strong><em>2. Pop Out Images</em></strong></p>
<p>Anne has a lot of awesome graphics but she didn&#8217;t really like displaying them too big on her blog so with this feature, she can just choose the &#8216;Small&#8221; or &#8220;Medium&#8221; images to post at her blog but visitors, once clicking on the images, will be able to see a much bigger picture.</p>
<div id="attachment_1462" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://ladyjavacreations.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/popout-images.gif" rel="lightbox[1457]" title="popout images"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1462" title="popout images" src="http://ladyjavacreations.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/popout-images-300x188.gif" alt="popout images" width="300" height="188" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">popped out bigger image</p></div>
<p><strong><em>3. Pull out tab</em></strong></p>
<p>Anne also loved the idea of a pullout tab like how  I had it at <a href="http://javaura.com/2011/04/happy-april/">LJL</a> and so she is sporting one too</p>
<div id="attachment_1463" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://ladyjavacreations.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/pullouttab.gif" rel="lightbox[1457]" title="pull out tab"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1463" title="pull out tab" src="http://ladyjavacreations.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/pullouttab-300x253.gif" alt="pull out tab" width="300" height="253" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">pull out sidebar widget</p></div>
<p>So head on over to <a href="http://vbeventz.blogspot.com/">Violetblush</a> and check out the new features there and don&#8217;t forget to sign her guestbook and read her writeup on <a href="http://vbeventz.blogspot.com/2011/04/ladyjava-creations-affordable-blog.html">LadyJava Creations</a> ok!</p>

<p><a href="http://www.thereismoretome.com/">Tina</a>, referred to me by Cindi, wanted a simple header for her blog. She knew what she wanted and showed me some samples and based on that, I came up with this blog header. The rest of the template colors were then matched to give it contrast.</p>

<p>So, here&#8217;s another <a href="http://ladyjavacreations.com">blog makeover</a> that Ane has commissioned me to do. Basically it&#8217;s a full blog makeover and a transfer from her <a href="http://ladyjavacreations.com/services/">blogger hosted blog to WordPress</a>.  She wanted the same layout as her other <a href="http://ladyjavacreations.com/2011/03/blog-makeover-76-life-according-to-me/">awesome blog</a> so  I just needed to whip up a new header, match it up with a background image to suit the theme of her <a href="http://www.ane-tv.com/2011/03/anes-glamourous-new-look/">entertainment blog</a> and play around with some colors. Here&#8217;s the result <img src='http://ladyjavacreations.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
