You’ve probably noticed that the site looks different today. MDP has taken on a new look for the new year. We’ve moved all the archives and categories to the right side, allowing larger pictures to fit in the page.
You can see that yesterdays picture below has been re-posted in the new larger format, and today’s picture is also posted in the new format.
We’ve also changed the color to a refreshing white.
What might interest many of you is that there are new anti spam procedures in place so that the majority of the site’s grammar errors will be in the body of the posts as opposed to being in the comments from odd spammers.
In the upgrade, we’ve temporarily lost the ability to show the comments and posts all on the front page. However, you can click on the underlined “comment” link below to read the comments and to leave one of your own.
About today’s picture:
Today’s picture is also from the National Wildlife Refuge. This picture looks out over Cash Lake, (I don’t have to tell you that it’s not a natural lake as we know that there are none in MD) which is one of the more scenic and more visited areas of the refuge. During this time of year half of the trails around the lake are shut down to prevent people from interfering with the migration of birds to the lake. I was armed with a zoom lens to help overcome this problem, but I wasn’t armed with the right clothing to be out there for too long. In the Spring, MDP will be back to see the rest of the lake.

Bring back a more soothing color, MDP. “Refreshing” hurts my eyes this time of the day.

Looks good, but I always thought of the spam comments as a feature.

I like it! Never loved the yellow background, MD themed though it may have been.

Who is responsible for these lovely improvements? He must be a smart, attractive, and successful person.

Every girl crazy ’bout a sharp-dressed blog, MDP. And I’m liking the National Wildlife Refuge photos too.
