Hello hello,
Having reaped the benefits of renovating this blog layout after some hard work for over a year, I've decided it needs to change. And this time I am going to go very plain jane and probably very ordinary. But before I make the massive switch, I'd like to poll you all.
And of course based on your responses, I am going to act on it and may take a hiatus from blogging accordingly. Thanks for voting!

No!! Why change something that works! Keep the change (I mean the one from a year ago)

Bala-> The "if it ain't broken, why fix it" theory. But remember me? And that cricket bat that wasn't broken? Enough said :D
change is reqd if some thing is wrong or outdated but then your blog style is superb as on date why???? then change retain the same good luck
Appa-> Thanks for the comment, Appa. But I was just thinking that a change might be more refreshing to the eye. I will save this template of course if I need to revert back to it at a later date pending mass disapproval of any changes I may made (if indeed I make them) :)
Thanks for the vote of confidence from the family, both of you!
Jaya,
You sound liek me now :), Though I have everything in place at home after a while I always feel it needs a change of looks just because it gets boring (though it all works) :). I vote "Yes" merely for that reason! As long as you have this version saved it is always there to go back to :) Good Luck!!
I'm on the wall with this one. I tend to attach the image of the blog to its feel, and when it changes drastically it takes time to get re-adjusted to it. It somehow loses the warmth and coziness albeit for a little while, I don't like that phase.
On the other hand, I keep making frequent changes to my own blog. I get tired of looking at the same layout for months together! But mostly I stick to just revamping the header.
If its going to make *you* feel better, then just go ahead :-D We'll still all come back :)
Musing Gal-> Exactly! I don't know about everyone else but I've grown a bit weary of the blog's look. It's like an old pair of comfortable shoes.. very comforting but maybe just maybe it's time for a change? Like I said, I'll have this template saved. But I also have my new one ready. It will debut tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
Priya-> Couldn't agree more with you. I know you tweak your headers. I thought of leaving it at that too and that's in fact why I left the third option on the vote. But even while I was typing in that option, I knew no one would vote for it. It was just a lazy option.
And now.. soon enough I shall unveil the new template and even if it doesn't have the resounding success of this one that was so well-loved, I hope it is met with optimism than thrashing. Fingers crossed!
Thanks for voicing up everyone and sharing your opinions.
And thanks to all who voted (as of now 10 votes - that's not even a tenth of the number of you who supposedly read the blog everyday. It's either laziness on your parts or I can take it in a skewed positivity that none of you are here for the looks but sheerly for the content. :D) Ciao!
I haven't read your blogs in ages, JayP .So, I am not sure if I should vote here :). All the same, I am curious to know why you'd wanna change it all now! I suspect this is your way of finding out who your readers are , and how regular they are.. C'mon, admit it....wink
"No" i dont like this change...i liked the earlier one better...this is plain pink & boring..
Atleast dont leave this so plain...make it exciting plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Nincompoop-> Welcome back Ram! And to answer your question, if the poll was any indication of the number of readers I have, then it is 12, which is about 90 lesser than what the daily StatCounter claims. so "no". Welcome back however.. and what on earth happened to your one-blog-wonder?
Madhumathi-> I am sorry you feel so strongly about the new template. But to be honest I had tired of the old one and I desperately needed something fresh to indpire me to write something. While this may not have the homely and earthy charm of the previous template, I do feel it's crisper and more decluttered as well. The comfy feeling maybe a while but it'll creep in too. Or so I hope. And to match the first ever change I made (the previous template) which was so well-received was going to be unlikely. And so I see that I was right in setting a lower bar for this one at the outset.
However, I sure hope you were here for the content and much-less the layout of the blog and you should get used to it pretty soon anyways. And if I don't like it soonish, I might consider switching too (though it's such hard work).
And for the excitement part, the excitement is in the writings, don't you think? I mean it is the same old chai, but just in bright new cups. Thanks for commenthing. Enjoy!
