Blog Design is not something I claim to be an expert at, but as we continue this series, let’s take a step away from the code and look at the actual design process. Peter Flaschner of The Blog Studio specializes in design specifically for blogs. He’s a guy that understands how blogs work from a technical side and aesthetics and knows how to capture reader interest through intuitive layout and technicque. He’s a guy I’d like to find a way to work with some time.
Recently, he contributed to the Blogging for Beginners series at Problogger. At this time, Parts 1 and 2 are available and I look forward to Part 3. Even if you’re not a designer (as I am not), the window into the thought process involved is quite spectaculor.
Since this is a crucial part of the blogging process and I am far unqualified to speak on it, I direct you to Peter’s articles.
