Tinker Tinker Tinker
As you may have noticed, I have been tinkering again. The has had some additions, some removals and some changes. First up, and most obvious, is the Librarything widget. This shows random books from my library held here. So you can now see the sort of thing I read. I have removed the Categories listing and have added a Site Map link - this is because I don’t really write series, so the chances of someone needing to check a category is slim. For the same reason, I have changed the archive listing to yearly rather than monthly.
All this has the effect of tidying up the sidebar which was becoming long and unwieldy.

It’s definitely tidier now, but can’t you make that yellow background white for the librarything widget to match the rest of your site?

Not sure: probably, I need to look into the css for it to see

How’s that? I had to remove the automatic header, change the style (the whole thing is just a line of code) and manually put in the header and link to my library.
Better? Worse?

Not too bad at all really - I am now onto the 3rd step: the weakest of the patches. I’m almost through the first of the 3 weeks on this strength, after that I’m flying solo. Wheeeeeeee!
