Singaporegovt Make-over!


As you all might have noticed, the physical outlook of this blog has changed. Unfortunately for you all, the author remains the same, aka me! Yes, it is still that same old Thrasymachus, balding and writing articles that never ends. Unlike the coming General Elections, this blog is still democratic (for the moment) and all views are welcomed. Feel free to voice your opinions on the outlook of the blog or any issues. Should you miss the old outlook, here is a screenshot to ease your "pain".

There are some outstanding comments (eg: Elfred and Amatu) which I've yet to reply to. In my defense, I've been extremely busy with some stuff. In the coming weeks, I'll be away and out of town (not away and standing for G. Elections, if you are wondering!). Nonetheless, I'll still be receiving comments that will be directed to my email. If you feel like cursing me or asking me anything, just drop a mail at singaporegovt@singapore.com. Cheers!

Hi Thrasymachus,

I still prefer your old format. The font is readable. Otherwise, you should use a larger font.

You have a very good and informative blog on politics on Singapore. It might be more interesting to explore topics on the opposition after you have finished your "Founders of Singapore" series.

Best regards,
BL

hi T!

i prefer your old layout too. where you going away too? heh, im very kpo :P

May i suggest the singapore flag?

I prefer this "dark-themed" background, but a light color might be more professional for a political blog.

Just my 2-cents ^_^

Hi Guys

Thanks for all your inputs. I'll just stick with this format for the time being and keep a lookout for add-on to make this blog more presentable. Anyway, do anyone know of any html script to have the "increase and decrease" font size buttons?

Hi BL

I was just away into a place where politics is secondary and apathy is greater than the average Singapore standards but with fiercer anarchists. ;)

Cheers!

Hi dhri

Noted. Maybe I would change to another layout after couple of months time. Thanks!

Cheers!
