Yay Blog Design (Woo)

You may or may not know that I am currently trying to update my blog's appearance, and have been for a couple of weeks now. I have planned a load of different themes, and so today marks the first of many possible designs. I know that right now you're all just like;

 
Right? Well just.. chill.

It took me a while to set up this current theme, and I may (I did) have temporarily deleted the comments function in the meanwhile (oops). Anywhale, they're back now and I would love to know people's opinions on the new design, because I'm not quite sure as to whether I like it or not.

I mean, I like the automatic sidebar and the colour theme, but I'm not too sure on the font and title layout..

Ideas?

    Love your blog design, Amy! :) I've decided to get back to you right now, about your question on my blog. I don't think I'm ready to design anyone else's blog, I've only just got into it myself, and I'm not sure how that all works. So, I'm sorry to say, I can't be offering you a design, since I'm still quite an amateur when it comes to working out how to design other people's blogs...I'm so sorry. Maybe later on in my designing/coding career.

    Thank you!
    And sure, I understand! However it has led me to try and design my own - failing miserably with the whole half-sidebar-view thing..
    Although if I may ask one question - how did you add the 'let's go explore' up button?

      I used this tutorial: http://areyouadragonmaster.blogspot.com/2014/02/tutorial-sliding-menu.html
      Although there are a few things it doesn't tell you, that I had to figure out myself...

      I did actually manage to disable comments altogether when I was setting up this template - it literally took me about three hours to fix.

    Hmm, I like how everything looks, but I'm not a fan of this type of design. I like the normal one's better because they're much easier to use in my opinion. This one is kinda glitching on my computer right now, so maybe it's just me, but other than that, it looks good!

      Gah that sucks, sorry!
      This design should just be temporary however - I just need to find someone willing to create a new template, and then, fingers crossed, the whole outlook of The Blog Hermit will change.
