I'm planning a redesign of my site and blog.  The blog changes won't be that different but with regard to the auction paintings, I've been closing comments after the bidding is over.  In the future, I'd like to leave the comments open.  This blog is all about interaction for me.  That's what I want most out of it.  So I plan to delete the bids after the auction is over and re-open the posts to comments.  I've done that starting with this post.

As for the rest of the website, I think I want a different color scheme.  I've had the current old light text on blue background  for quite a while now and feel like going with a lighter background.  I don't want a white one, but a lighter one.  It's Spring!  Time for renewal.
