Your Opinion Is Greatly Needed

-
Howdy, lovely people.

As you may have noticed, I rather drastically changed my blog's look.  What do you think?  Is it too stark?  Is the background with the books too weird/nerdy?  Let me know your thoughts, please!  I'd hate to have a look that y'all didn't like, so please do give me feedback.  (But, as a warning, I'm pretty fond of my new header, so I'm not sure if I'll change it, even if you guys don't like it.  Muhaahaha.)

I await your comments on pins and needles!

    I LOVE your new header!!! It's so gorgeous-the people, the trees, the black and white....
    It's perfect. :)
    The background is cute but I think it kind of competes with the simplicity of the header. Maybe a solid color background would look nice? But that's just me. :) Hope you don't mind my opinion! :)

    I agree. The header is awesome, the background is way too colorful, they don't 100% mesh well together. Either way, I will still visit!

    Thanks so much for your feedback, girls! That was my concern with the background; it seems to be fighting with the header. So, what do you think of it now? It may change couple times over the next couple days. Thanks for visiting, anyway!:D <3

    By the way you can make those birds disappear in the upper right from the original design, if you didn't know.

      Yes how? I have the same thing on my own blog.

      Hmmm. If I remember correctly, when you pick one of those styles that have something like that, when you go to backgrounds to select a new background, you should be able to click that thing that says "remove background image" before you select your new background from all the choices. I am afraid to try it to see if I remember correctly because I don't want to mess up my blog by accident! I will forget all my things I have already chosen! Hope that helps though.

      I use to use this specific layout for an old blog, and I use to be able to remove it back then that way. Not sure if they have changed it though? I haven't tried it in a while.

      Thanks! I'm debating whether I should remove them…we'll see:D

    Oooh! I LOVE it now with the new background. It's simply perfect. And personally I like the birds in the right corner, but I can see where you might not like them. :)

    I didn't see it with the books, but I love the header! The look you have now is nice -- clean, not distracting.

    If you could put a blog archive, because, you know, I kind-of want to read all of your past posts, that would be great.

I've gotten really bad about replying in a timely manner, but it's always my intention to do so eventually. (Even though it doesn't always happen. ;))

Lark Rise to Candleford, Seasons 1-4 {review}

Well, darlin's, here 't'is!  A review of the TV series Lark Rise to Candleford .   SO!  I finished the final season the other night, and am here to discuss my thoughts;)  (Spoilers will be sprinkled indiscriminately!  Read at your own risk;D) LRtC centers around young Laura Timmins, a girl from the wee hamlet of Lark Rise, who moves to the  more affluent town of Candleford to work in her aunt's (or was she just a cousin?) post office.  Miss Dorcas Lane is probably the wealthiest person in Candleford and holds a lot of sway with the townspeople.  With Laura's advent into Candleford, the two communities begin to be intertwined. The show's basic plots aren't my absolute favorites, but I love how relaxed the show is, and how marvelous the characters are.  (Because they just ARE.)  It's a cozy series, but at the same time there are moments of rather intense drama.   I'm not feeling extremely eloquent for reviewin...

Romeo and Juliet (2013) {review}

[Note:  Keep in mind that this review is written from the perspective of someone who has never actually read Romeo and Juliet , m'kay?:)  Also, there'll be spoilers, because, I mean…all things considered, you probably know how it all ends.] I first became seriously interested in watching this movie a) because of the utter gorgeousness of all the stills I saw on the Internet, and b) because it has Hailee Steinfeld.  I'd only seen her in True Grit (2011), but, I thought, wouldn't it be cool to see her in a completely different role? So, yesterday, I watched it.  And…I'm not quite sure what I think of it. First things first.  This movie was beautiful .  It was one of those films where you think, "I want just about this entire movie in screencaps."  The cinematography was excellent.  The lighting, the camera angles, the costumes and sets …aaaaaaahhhhh. See what I mean?? Hailee Steinfeld was absolutely precious as Juliet Capul...

My Dream Cast for a Live-Action Remake of 'The Incredibles'

Alas, no, I am aware of no immediate plans for Disney to produce a live-action version of The Incredibles .  But if such plans should ever materialize . . . have I got a cast ready for them or what. 😉 ⸻ Elastigirl / Helen Parr Emma Stone Emma would rock Helen's grit & sass like no other actress available today & I will not be accepting criticism of that statement at this time.  I would absolutely love to see her in this role.  She would crush it.  Mr. Incredible / Bob Parr Eric Allan Kramer I know he's a leetle too old now, especially as a partner for Stone, but he's the only person I've ever been able to envision as Bob.  (Except Alan Hale, Jr., but he's about six feet too old.)  So it is what it is, peeps.  Violet Parr Mackenzie Foy   I went back and forth on the casting for Violet.  I would also love to see what Millie Bobby Brown could do with the role, so it was difficult to decide.  In the end, I think Mackenzie Foy would ...
