It's Official:

I'm moving over to WordPress under a website in my name: http://tiyanamariewhite.com/.  Though I can't showcase you in a widget for the time being, I do hope you'll follow!  I will probably add some color to the site later, but for now it will stay in grey.  (There is something about a neutral palette that I like, though.)  I've got a crapload of schoolwork to be done, so playing with the site really is the last thing I should be doing right now, lol.

Thanks to everyone who offered feedback.  I'm very grateful for your support and advice. :)

Now, back to work.

Blogger Identity Crisis

So, thanks to Mr. Jay Noel and his comment about black backgrounds (:P), I am experiencing what I shall call a Blogger Identity Crisis.  It's quite scary.

Here's the deal: About two weeks after I created this blog, I learned about WordPress.

Now, immediately I was in love with it.  The simplicity and look of it... I know, looks are superficial, but it's just so lovely!  I really, really wanted to migrate my blog over there but thought it would be very finicky of me to do so, having just finished creating this one.

...

But now I've done the impulsive thing and went over and explored WordPress a bit more...and I love it.

I feel like a traitor.  I'm betraying Blogger.  Still, I want to complete the migration, but only if
  1. you all won't mind, and
  2. I won't lose any readers.
Granted, I only have about six or so regulars, heh, but I value you all the same--which means I very much value your opinions.

So, here's what I'm proposing: I'll let you go check out the freshly-created site I propose to move this joint to and then await your opinions on whether you think I should migrate or not.

Is it silly that I'm even telling you all of this and not just making the switch?  I hope not.  I just don't like being impulsive, so I want to know if others think this is a good idea or not.

So what do you think?  Should I buy the new blog look, or does it make my butt look big?
