Welcome To The New Enkay Blog
Welcome to the New Enkay Blog!! This is a really exciting day for me as I finally have made the switch over from my very long and hard to remember URL to an easy www.enkayblog.com. I had already owned the domain but the fear of losing my rankings made me not want to switch over but I finally decided to take the plunge and do so more than a year after I first started blogging.
Lets take a look at the new theme here. It is a custom design based on Statement by BlogOhBlog as mentioned before. It probably took me a week to get everything right and almost 14 hours of work last night to get the SQL databases transferred over and working right which by the way didn’t work so well as I had to input thousands of lines of database code manually. Either way, have a look around and let me know what you think of the theme. This is the first theme that is based on a template other than Vertigo Enhanced which has been the base for all my past theme designs. If you find any errors, please email me and you may just get a link back 
Also, right now I don’t know if you will have to update your RSS readers so until I get that clarified just hang on and I’ll get that figured out soon. I also put up a new contact form to get rid of the old one that would provide me with thousands of spam emails on a daily basis so hopefully this will be better than the last. Well, once again Welcome to the new blog and hope you like it!
Stephen Fung’s Contest
So, while I was down for the day I won ANOTHER contest over at Stephen Fung’s Blog and this time its a nice little unbranded iPod Nano which I may be giving away so look for that soon. As you may recall, it wasn’t long ago that I won the contest over at Balkhis for the Flip Minoe and at Nick Throlson’s blog for the advertising. Oh, and lets not forget the Zune over at Ms. Danielle’s about a year ago as well so lets keep this luck rolling! Thanks again Stephen!
Update: So, I figured that you won’t have to update your RSS feed readers as long you have the feedburner link as those have been updated internally. Now all I need to figure out is getting my blog back on Alexa. For the most part, I’m happy that I finally have a PR rating!
Entering Michael Kwans Creative Contest
While I’m currently working on compiling a new Female Blogger List, I decided to post up my contest submission for Michael Kwan’s contest where you have to photoshop a picture of John Chow by making it funny. Here is my entry.

Enkay,
I think the new theme looks great. I especially like the picture of your RSS feed. It is definitely unique and I haven’t seen any other feed icon like it. Good job!

Hey, I haven’t looked around much yet, but I like what I have seen so far. I agree with Debby that the feed icon is really cool. I also like the tabbed method of the Recent Posts, Recent Comments, etc. In fact, I almost think I would like to implement something like that on my site.

I love it. So simple and keeps the focus on the content. I also love the little images for each section of the side bar – very cool!

Thank you very much for your comments. I decided to make it a little more simpler so that its more appealing compared to the last theme where all the navigation was spread out.

Thanks a lot for your comments. I really liked the idea of tabs mainly because it reduces clutter by a lot. I would like to help you to set it up once I figure out how it was set up on this theme!

Thanks Debby! I’m glad you like it. I have a few things up my sleeve to help bring my rankings back up to par and you should see those come up in the upcoming weeks!

The theme is spectacular! I especially like the way images are used for the titles of different sections of the sidebar instead of regular text.
Another thing I really like is how three ads fit in one line, makes them look really elegant. Congrats on the new theme!
