Over the next two days, this site may look like a complete mess. Most details are ready for the upcoming design switch, but the design is the easy part. I will also re-structure a large part of the content (including old blog entries and pages) to make it easier to use tags rather than categories and to add new sub-pages the different parts of the site. As I have written earlier, each template will get a page of its own where you can see a larger screenshot and download additional material and previous versions if wanted. More information about each template will be available, such as number of included layouts and file sizes. I will also add a FAQ for each template, and have a couple of how-to's available as well.

Since my official target for this site is to add something new to it every day after this update, I want to make sure that the content is structured in a functional and future-proof way. I could have done all of this on a development site or locally on my computer, but I know myself well and I am very aware of the fact that it would take much more time than needed if I did it that way since there would be room for experiments and for taking breaks whenever I wanted. So in order to force myself to do it quickly and in an effective way, I'm going to do something that I would never recommend anyone else to do. I'm going to make several of these changes live directly on the site. It is definitely not a pretty way to do it, but it will force me to work fast and not stop until the job is completely done.

So don't panic if something is broken, it will hopefully result in an improvement in the end!
