An Orange Submarine An Orange Submarine An Orange Submarine

Reminder: The Pet Peeve Contest below is still open until November 29! Keep those entries a-comin!

Notice: Keep in mind the award is drawn by me, so you need to tell me what to draw. Some of these Description form entries are very vague. You can't win if I don't at least have some idea of what you want the Peeve to look like. :)

Update: We have constructed a submarine in order to more easily get from island to island as we hunt for those Pet Peeves you guys are telling us about. We've already captured a few from some winners, but there's plenty of need for more!

After the contest, the submarine will be retrofitted for the search for the One Refresh to Rule Them All on the Bionicle planet's ocean floor. We're working on getting a contact among the Orcas for an interview so they can help us in the search.

And there's a support banner to spread the word about this contest:

Finally, check out the blog sidebars farther down; there's a new extensive bones_quotes collection, some geared towards humor, some more serious, and some new images and a Gallery of Galaxies. :)

Question: I've been debating changing this blog name to something more interesting (with "Bones Blog" moved to the subtitle). Would that be a good idea? Bad idea? Would it depend? Any suggestions? So far I've got "Ethereal Skull" and "Orange Submarine" as brainstorms... But still not sure I wanna do that. Would it make the blog less recognizeable given that it's been called the "Bones Blog" for so long?

You mean as in a block on each side? Bad idea -- blogs like that compress the content too much, especially in the comments. I hate it when blogs have that.

 

Sorry. Pet Peeve. :lol:

That wouldn't help, it'd just make his entries even longer :P

 

Keep the name "The Bones Blog", but change the sub heading to "Now in three different shades of orange!" :P

But it'd be a lot easier to read it all and look at it. It's long enough as it is.

See, it would make it harder on my screen resolutions, because one side overlaps about half of all comments.

 

And what is hard about scrolling down? :P The length so far is not anywhere near as long as the length of front page of entries; that's been my basic guideline.

But it's irritating to scroll down to get to the last post and then find out that you've went past it. Can't you put all those quotes in a seperate entry of it's own.

 

 

Spoiler tag them maybe?

There's no way to syncronize the comments length and the sidebar length, I'm afraid, as comment page length depends on how many comments there are and the length of the particular entry. I suppose it is mildly annoying, but the only solution I can see is to cut out all the sidebar content and IMO that would be boring. :P

 

It seems the answer about the blog title is to keep it. Cool, I was kinda hoping for that. Maybe I'll just change the subtitle periodically.

 

Edit: As in, spoilertag just the quotes? Hm. Maybe... seems... odd though. :P And it wouldn't come anywhere near solving the problem HtW mentioned as other blocks already go way past most comment page lengths.

Change the subtitle, but you have to keep the "The Bones Blog" or else I shall abandon it. :P Really, it is a hallmark of your blog, something that I just absolutely love(d). So... *

 

Hrrm! Do you not think you are taking this Survurlode thing too far? I mean, creating a submarine? Plus, where did you get the funds for that u-boat anyway? Logicians are not supposed to get any money. :P

 

 

* This is a fact, not an opinion, and cannot be disproven because EW said so.

I don't think you should change your blog's name. It looks good like this. It sounds like you, and people are used to it. :)

 

And if ya don't mind, I'll just keep this banner. :P

Contest: Gah, fine. :P I updated the description for The Misinformed...

 

Name: Personally, I like "Bones Blog." But if you want to change, that's your choice. ;) I'm not saying that you should, or that you should not, but if you do, anything orange- or skeleton-related would be work well to remind us its your, in my opinion anyways.
