August 28th, 2007 by Matt- Does your blog need a redesign? Benefits of a Blog Redesign.
- Did you know that Blogger has a secret version of their system that allows you access to upcoming features before they’re released? It’s called Blogger in Draft.
- Big webcasters agree to royalty
crap, er cap, deal. - Pro Blog Design has written a review of NTugo.com’s design.
- Looking for some icons? Smashing Magazine has 20+ more icon sets for you to have fun with.
- When testing a new design, it’s a good idea to test at various screen resolutions. Lifehacker has instructions on resizing Firefox to exact pixel dimensions for this reason. Or you could just use the Web Developer Toolbar…
- eMonetized.com has an interesting contest going. Four people who enter will have 125×125 ads placed on JohnChow.com (which would run you $500/month normally). All you have to do to enter is link to eMonetized withing the guidelines described in the post.
- How do you spell? Hopefully not with chat-speak…
Really, do you use favorite or favourite? Color or colour? - ProBlogger has released another one of those wonderful reader-submitted links posts. I’ve been enjoying reading them, ad I hope The ProBlogger continues to do something similar, even after the 31 Days to a Better Blog series ends. They don’t necessarily have to be reader-submitted, but they could have a new twist on the same idea. I like reading through the large quantities of links.
- Guide to Using DualFeeds with FeedBurner.
- As most of you will probably know, Lightbox is a JavaScript library introduced a couple years back. It’s goal was to make viewing image galleries easier. A plethora of spin-off projects have appeared, each introducing their own improvements. Which Lightbox is right for you?
Thanks for the links.
FYI the contest you link to is for an ad on John Chow’s site not Darren Rowse’s.

As always, good links. My favorite this week was picking out a lightbox script. Things were so much simpler when there was just the one lightbox!
Why the heck did I put ProBlogger? I’d better fix that…
I use American English, but I like seeing the British way of spelling things too. I just trip up occasionally when I see a word like “jewellery.”
