Matt Blancarte dot Com Design - Business - Two Cents

For those of you who don’t know me, I’m one of the Unique Blog Designs founders. I started this personal blog back in July of 2007, and had it running for a few months. With the launch of UBD, I ended up spending all of my time working on the business, and designing for clients of ours. A blog-hiatus ensued, if you will.

Finally, a few months ago I finally sat down and began working on my personal blog design which was in need of desperate help. There’s something wrong when you’re a blog designer who uses a free theme for your personal blog… Anyways, I spent an entire weekend working on this design, and it turned out very well. Most of the designs I produce are spec’ed out by our clients, so having free-reign was great.

99% of blogs have white or light backgrounds and dark text (for obvious reasons)…
