IC has gone through a makeover! Welcome to the grand re-opening of IC. All of you who read me in Google reader or the like would you please click over and check out the new me? Pretty-please-with sugar on top, it would mean the world to me.
I worked with Shannon from Eightcrazy Designs (the best blogger designer and friend ever!) to redesign and rebrand my whole site. Didn’t she do an amazing job?! I couldn’t be more pleased. And believe me she had to work…I was so demanding and annoying I am sure. Shannon has just recently opened her schedule up again (after having it closed for months due to a move to Alaska) so if you need someone to design your site check her out quick. She is one of the best in the business so her schedule will fill up fast.
Since I moved from Blogger to WordPress (couldn’t be more pleased with that!) I went with See My Designs by Shauna for the WordPress transfer. I needed someone who could move me over seamlessly and she came highly recommended (thanks Layla!). I was shaking in my boots with moving 3 1/2 years of content over from Blogger! Even through a few of my freak fests she remained calm and walked me through everything. She rocks!
So what do you think? Pull up a chair and click around. I would love to hear your thoughts on my redesign.
Love it! I am working on my redesign, but it’s hard work =/ Hopefully when I’m finished it will look as professional as yours =)
Best,
Anna
I think it’s pretty fabulous, Beckie! I love your “double toolbar” at the top…makes it much easier to search for general projects/ideas. I’ve seen lots of EightCrazy sites, and they are so well designed.
I am really curious to hear about your move from Blogger to WordPress. So many of my favorite bloggers have done it….my main concerns are between losing posts and/or Google Friend Connect Followers or Email Subscribers. If you post more about your thoughts behind the move, I think it would be a great read.
Love it!! Looks really nice. It feels alot more streamlined.
Thanks Christine I am so proud of it. {Squuueal}
Thanks Nic. I am so excited about it. How is that cabinet coming?
Thank you Elizabeth and welcome. I ham glad you found me.
I will definitely make that a post Amanda. so far everything has gone well and I don’t think I have lost a soul. But time will tell.
Thanks Anna. Are you doing it yourself? Brave girl!
Love it…
Beckie!
It looks fabulous!!! I really do love the layout so much better. And it’s super easy to navigate. 🙂
I loved my move to wordpress.
Congrats, girl!
xoxo,

NICE!!
Love it!!! Congrats to you :)!
love it, Becky!
Way less busy…so I see more of you!
love love love!
I’m lovin’ the search feature! Now I can find those projects again when I need inspiration or help!
It all looks very organized with the double tool bar on top. Love the colors together too.
Looks Great! Nice work! 🙂
I think it looks fabulous! I’m so new to blogging and am on the waiting list now for a re-design so I can totally get your excitement!! Hooray for your big day!
It looks great! Easy to read & navigate. Love it!
Hi Becky-
I noticed the other day – I think it looks great. I switched from Typepad to WordPress a year ago and could not be happier.
My best- Diane
The place looks wonderful Beckie!
Looks GREAT!!!
so much cleaner and easy on the eyes! I like the format of the comments too
I love it Beckie! Love the new logo too, so cool!
Thanks Kamster…I am so glad it is finally done. So happy to be on WordPress too.
Thanks Javetta for coming out of hiding to say that. It means a lot!
I should have done it a year ago. Moving 3 1/2 years of posts is scary. But I think I did it.
Thanks Sandi! {Squuueal!}
Tee hee…thanks…it was so long coming. I wish I would have done this years ago!
Awww shucks…thanks darling!
wOOHOO! That was something that was very important to me because my other search one was awful!
I couldn’t be more happy about it. It is so much more “me” and so easy to navigate and I heart WordPress!
Becky I absolutely love the blog redesign. I usually have your blog open all day on my desktop at work. I just love it!!!
Opps! Beckie. Sorry about the misspelling, my sister in law is also a Becky. 🙂
It looks fantastic!! So clean and chic! We transfered from blogger to wordpress last summer and I had a few freak fests myself. But it was a great move, we love wordpress now! Thanks for sharing your incredible ideas.
Wow it looks great!!! So nice and clean and the colors are gorgeous.
I also really love the fonts!
Looks good! Love the double row of category thingys at the top. I enjoy your blog!
When it loaded, I was like, “Wow!” I’m pretty picky, so it must be great. 😉 Love the new logo, too.
very nice! I do miss the updated blogroll on the side, though, where you could see when your blogroll people had most recently posted.
LOVE it. i am an avid reader, fan, follower :).
I do too. I will have to check into that feature and see if it is available on wordpress
I am a big fan of your blog! Thank you for all of your great ideas and inspiration! So… why did you decide to change from Blogger to WordPress? Do you wish you would have done it sooner? I’m on Blogger, but have been contemplating a move also. Any input you have is appreciated! Have a wonderful day!!!

Yes I wish I would have started on WordPress. I will do a post on it soon and the reasons I think it is better.
