I've rolled out a new design for Narga since yesterday evening. You may have noticed that I haven’t updated the blog for last months now. This is first post of this year to let you know that I’m back.

What happened?

I’m not going to lie to you, the main reason I stopped creating tutorials, themes and plugins is because I wasn’t very motivated and didn’t have much time either. The last redesign was one years ago, used table layouts, a lot of image files, and as a result was really sluggish. It’s definitely not good when your site takes almost ten seconds to load and you’re marketing speedy web hosting.

Narga v6.5 Redesigned since 2010

I started new design on this in mid October, 2009, the layout changed numerous times in the first couple of weeks before I (mostly) settled on what you see now. Since then though I’ve rewritten the ‘theme’ behind this half a dozen times, still not sure I’m entirely happy with it, but its better than before.

Today, I’ve login to Yahoo homepage then it ask me “Take a sneak peek at the new Yahoo! homepage”. I made some screentshot of new Yahoo redesign below:

and the old style with “Take a sneak peek at the new Yahoo! homepage” taglines:
