About

Here is the About page linked to from the header.

As a Wordpress user, I was absolutely fascinated with the Visionary theme that Justin Tadlock created. It is just so squeeky clean - yet fully functional. Intended primarily as a magazine-style or newsletter-style theme, it is still flexible enough to be used in other circumstances.

When I found out that it had been converted into a Blogger theme (by someone over at Blogger Templates), I was ecstatic. How cool would it be to have some of the advanced features in Blogger that are available in Wordpress. But, how much fancy stuff could it really do? I knew I'd just have to find out.

At first glance it all seemed to be there (althought with a slightly clunkier appearance). But, alas, it was really just a shell. Under the covers most of the "horsepower" was missing. Sure, I could "hard code" a ton of stuff, and it would probably "make do", but I wanted more. I wanted a fully loaded theme.

So, I took the template and made a few modifications. It's going pretty well, but it's still a work in progress. I like to call it "Visionary Reloaded" (an homage to a number of hacked Wordpress plugins). Enjoy.
