Raucous Royals new design

I am still tweaking the new design. It is sort of Alice in Wonderland meets Gothic horror. I have been experimenting with pen and ink lately and forgot how much fun it can be to limit your colors. What do you think? Too dark? Did you like the old design better? Honesty appreciated.

Blog roll
I forgot to save my blogroll so I had to go by memory (huh?) on what was there before. If I accidentally deleted a blog or if you have a blog that you want added then either email me or add your site to the comments below.


Come follow me little children...
I added one of those "follow me" widgets. I am kind of uncomfortable with the whole follow me concept. My first association is a fairytale my grandmother used to enjoy telling - The Pied Piper of Hamlin. The Pied Piper was a bad man. One minute he was solving the rat problem and the next minute he was leading helpless children out to sea. That's what happens when you follow someone.

My next association is my mother harping in my teenage ears, "if your friends jumped off a bridge then would you?" I was taught to always be suspicious of anyone who says "follow me." I am not really sure what the purpose of the follow me gadget is? But I see everyone doing it on their blogs....so it must be good. right? You can't all be crazy bridge jumpers.
