Hi all
I've started to redesign my blog
www.yourepifany.blogspot.com/
Can anyone help me with ways to add a menu bar into the design. Constructive criticism would also helpful for the overall design of my blog so far.
Let me know what you all think and become my follower too if you like the content and send me a link to yours.
Thanks
:c)

i like the design a lot. So, you want a horizontal menu bar? I have never used blogger, so I can't really help you there. I use a php include to insert my menubar into the header template (I use wordpress)
So far so good.
Also, it looks like you'd be good person to ask if you want to guest blog on my fashion section @ roguedeals.com/reviews/fashion
It's still being developed, but let me know if you're interested in doing a what not to wear, or make-up article or whatever. I decided to do a fashion section for the Ladies of us Techies, so they have something to surf around and talk about while we talk about techie stuff :0
Again, I like your layout, can you use PHP in blogger? -
Your header is nice, and fits the page. If that was wordpress I could help a little. The only I might suggest is to use some tables or div alignments and get the top epifany in 2/3 of the top space and then replicate the menu code above in the 1/3 of top space.
PS .. I don't get it. If the word is "Epiphany" ... I understand if that was taken ... e.g. epiphany.blogspot.com (it appears to be so and could explain why you use "Epifany" instead).
But - you chose something different altogether yourepifany.blogspot.com/ .. I was going to ask why you didn't select YourEpiphany.blogspot.com instead ... but that URL also appears to be taken.
I think before you get involved with more posts, since you only have 14 posts .. I would rethink and come up with a new blogspot URL. Neither of those names/URLs could ever become it's own domain either - because they are also both taken. Ideally, if you choose blogger over wordpress .. you should at least spend $10 and register a domain so you can mask your blogger url -
Thank you all for your comments so far. :c)
roguedeals I like your idea about being a guest blog reviewer. I would be happy to help you. Let me know when you need some information.
PetLvr. Thank you for your comments. It is true that the word Epifany has been taken in various forms but I want to eventually call everything yourepifany as I'm going to make a website/store with the blog attached. I'm currently testing out a few things with the blog. -
I love your layout! Great colors too. I use wordpress for mine and am wanting to make do some fine-tuning to mine too - I was given a pretty shocking quote by a web-designer. Way too much for me to pay now. looks like I'll have to make do with my own humble skills for now. www.sochicinteriors.com

i really like the blog layout, works well, easy to look around and find relevant posts. nice one! I used to use blogger but i moved to wordpress. but if I remember rightly, you should add a widget box to the top of the page, if you search for the widget 'menu' and it's the first one in the list. I'm not sure how well it works at the top but you can definitely insert it into a top mounted widget and you can adjust the height of it, and I assume the colours too (you may have to update the widget code for that).
hope this helps a little, who knows!
