As some of you may have noticed, I've been tweaking with my blog's look for the past couple of days. I was NOT happy with the Blogger 2-column template because there is so much wasted space on the screen, so I embarked on an HTML journey to make a 3-column. Luckily there are some really good guides out there, so I managed to do it without screwing it up!
I also added a banner of some of my books, but added a mosaic filter in Adobe Photoshop to get the cool effect you see.
Let me know what you think, and if you have any other comments/suggestions! I'm always looking for feedback!
Welcome!

Welcome! I’m Swapna Krishna, and this is where you’ll find my book reviews. Feel free to look through my review database. I also host the South Asian Review Database and run the South Asian Challenge, which promote the authors and literature of the region.
I do accept books for review, but please take a look at my review policy before pitching me a book. If you have any questions, please contact me.

It looks nice. I can't really help you out though. I started using iWeb software to get the versatility that I have because I no nothing about HTML
Yeah for Photoshop! The banner looks great.
I love the banner-it looks so cool. I would love to get a 3 column set up but I haven't been brave enough to fool around with it yet. I'm scared of losing the whole thing. lol. I wish blogger had 3 column-I wonder why they don't.
Looks great :) Lol I nothing about html and code!
love the new look! I'm jealous of your photoshop skills.
Very nice - especially the mosaic!
Looking good, and I love the banner! I always like seeing other people's books. lol.
I've been thinking I'd prefer a 3 column layout as well, but I'm with Dar, I'm too scared to fiddle around with it! Your setup looks great.
