As our dedicated contributors and readers will notice, The
CIS Blog has looked better —and often times more confusing — since Scott and I
took on the website. We are trying to incorporate a new modern look to the site
while still making it versatile and easy for our contributors and ourselves to
use and read. Unfortunately, Blogger doesn’t want us to do that without a
fight.
For the next four months, our site will stay with a simple
dynamic view of all articles. They will still be easy to find, but it will not
be as clean as we hoped. This is to make it easier for
uploading in the busy times of basketball, hockey and national championships.
We are forced to sacrifice attractiveness for quality of content, but it’s a
sacrifice we’re both willing to make. Content comes before visuals.
Within the upcoming summer months when I am done my
undergraduate degree, I will be working on hopefully transferring servers and
making the website better for usability as well as physical appearance. This
way, The CIS Blog can benefit from a better back end.
For now, we ask you please bear with us as we deal with
Blogger’s frantic battle. Our goal is still to bring the best coverage of CIS
sports we can — we’ll just do it with a simple website.
