    Looks clean, and a good story about how you hooked up with the designers.
  • Laurent LaSalle · 1 year ago
    Wow, suddently I am ashamed of calling myself a web designer...
  • Beth Dunn · 1 year ago
    Love it. Nice picture, nice overall design!
  • Trula · 1 year ago
    kinda cookie-cutter but the pic header personalizes it. Overall clean design, very nice work.
  • Nico · 1 year ago
    Thanks! To be fair though, I have to mention that the design is a customization of an existing theme.

    Oh, and you forgot to mention. The banner image was taken by C.C Chapman too. Another person you met via social networking!
  • Chris Thomson · 1 year ago
    Nice redesign. I love it. :)
  • micah · 1 year ago
    So much easier to read! I like it very much. Nice work Chris. I like the comments talk bubble in the upper left of the posts.
  • chrisbrogan · 1 year ago
    Oh! I had no idea where the banner pic came from. You took that. : ) But I did use CC's pic with attribution for this post, at least. : ) I guess I'll email him for permission for my new banner bar.

    And right, I should say that nico was kind enough to customize something I really liked that is essentially Christopher S. Penn 's layout for his blog (another guy I met through social networking and social media).

    I guess this story could keep going on like this. : )

    I'm trying to fix a button that I broke. : (

  • GeekMommy · 1 year ago
    It looks fabulous!
    And thanks for the heads up on who did your design etc... many of us are wondering who we should contact for new site designs! :)
  • julien · 1 year ago
    @geekmommy -- yeah, nico is great. hire him!

    as for justin, well, let's just say he's harder to get access to. :)

    Looks great, Chris! I like that you got more content above the fold and I like the lighter palette.

  • Peter O'Connell · 1 year ago
    Nice layout, really like the icon.

    Not sure why the type has to be sooo small but maybe squinting makes me look cooler.

    Best always,

  • Matthew Ebel · 1 year ago
    Wow... I've seen a few people moving to a layout like this. It's very clean, very easy to follow, and looks great.
  • Dan York · 1 year ago
    Chris,

    Nice job on the redesign. I like the use of the "c" "b" logo that you also used on your white paper. Great story, too!

  • Danesh · 1 year ago
    Amazing design! Simple yet classy; the colors very easy on the eye; the logo - very innovative.

    Came here through Dan York's tweet.

    This looks great, Chris. I have a new appreciation for this stuff after working on designing my own site/blog this weekend... to be launched soon, hopefully :)
  • Laura Whitehead · 1 year ago
    Chris - a really bright and fresh clean design! Wouldn't have seen it if you hadn't reminded us RSS reading peeps in your post!
  • Jim "Genuine" Turner · 1 year ago
    Very cool design and just like you to get a design using social media. Great job Chris and to the others!
  • Michael Kauffman · 1 year ago
    Crisp, clean and classy. Kudos.
  • doughaslam · 1 year ago
    Love the new design-- well done.

    Now all you need is a "LEGO Chris Brogan" game. Or at least a video promo pretending there is one.
  • Annie Boccio · 1 year ago
    Love the new logo and banner, the colors are great and the logo is perfect for you. Very nice!
  • Dave Delaney · 1 year ago

  • John Piercy · 1 year ago

    well done
  • Chris Gilmer · 1 year ago
    Love the new design buddy! no more rss for me, im going to have to visit in person!
  • Eban Crawford · 1 year ago
    I love this new design. It is very airy and inviting. I also like how there is tons of information here, in the body and sidebars, but nothing feels cramped. It is very easy on the eye.

    Great job Chris, Nico, and Justin!

    Cheers
  • Judy-on-the-go-Reid · 1 year ago
    Loooooooove the new look.

    Got any cookies?
  • Travell Perkins · 1 year ago
    Nice job on the new design. I hadn't stopped by the site in a while since I was getting my dose over twitter. I was curious as to what you were up to on the blog. The site came up and I started reading and then I felt wierd. I looked around and bam. I had to check my address bar, I thought I made a mistake. Then I went up to the header to see if your mug was in the design... ah to the left faded in blue. A lot more friendly than the black and white "I'm gonna bash your face in" stare from the old design.

    I love Nico, he's a really cool cat. He needs to do a little work on his own site one of these days...
  • Brendan Cosgrove · 1 year ago
    This looks great! Its still feels very you. Great facelift!
  • kinlane · 1 year ago
