New Blog Design

A month after the original thechantiki.com design was completed and ready for action Stacy started itching to redesign it. I would have nothing of it because I loved it so and I knew he had other (read: paying) jobs on which to work.

Time wore on and I saw that the more designs he did the better they got. This guy learns from every project he does. It’s quite impressive. Anyway, I decided to let him go to town and work up a design that is in line with current trends and he delivered.

I love it. I love that cartoon Toca is with me. I love that there is a rainbow, which I specifically requested. I love that there are no messy google ads at the top. I love that my latest tweet is highlighted. I love it all.

There’s a whole lot of love here at thechantiki.com today.

I hope you all enjoy the site and please make comments!

    If only I had time to blog anymore – I would definitely be knocking on Stacy’s door to have him work his creative magic.

    I LOVE the cartoon Toca!
    Now we need cartoon Tiki and Lolas!
    I don’t know how Stacy is not a millionaire with his skillz.

      I agree, I want cartoon Tiki and Lola! They should have their own special page, hidden somewhere like an easter egg.

    This is pretty spectacular, Chan. The little cartoon Toca at the bottom corner just cracks me up.

    I’m jealous of your spiffy designyness.

    I’m new to your blog so I’m unable to compare with the old, but the new design looks incredible! I could use some help with my blog design.

    Here’s the Brady Bunch tiki idol:

    LOVE the new design Chan! :)

    Again, I am late late late, so i’m probably looking at some new-new changes, but the whole thing, from colors to design to fonts is absolute eye candy.

    I particularly love the cartoon of you and Toca, but also the Chantiki banner at the top with your lovely visage. And the ladybug. If anyone is a ladybug, my dear, it is you.

    Great job altogether in my opinion!!!
