Transition Culture

An Evolving Exploration into the Head, Heart and Hands of Energy Descent

Transition Culture has moved

I no longer blog on this site. You can now find me, my general blogs, and the work I am doing researching my forthcoming book on imagination, on my new blog.

A New Look for Transition Culture.

TCBy now you may have noticed that Transition Culture looks somewhat different. I thought that, to co-incide with the arrival of The Transition Handbook it was time to give the site a makeover, given that it has looked exactly the same since it began in November 2005. The redesign was done by Simon of Lumpy Lemon in Oxford, and I rather like it… . It tidies up the links down the right hand side that had become very long and sprawly, and is hopefully a joy for you to use. What do you think? Do let us know your thoughts on our new look.

Look good Rob. It would be nice to have back the date and time stamps on the threads. It is useful to see when a comment was posted.

I dont like the website design. Its my first time on the site, it`s too white. Suggestion: Make it more earthy, it currently feels like a cheap newspaper.

Not sure if I’ve missed it mentioned somewhere, but the illustration is fantastic. Does a great job of telling the transition story. Actually reminds me of the ‘Curse of the Warerabbit’ village Wallace and Gromit reside in which I remember being discussed here previously. Not sure where it is but I want to live there. 🙂

Simon I think the design is an improvement and I really like the clean and simple look. Could the web address of the commenters be made public if given, that could be useful.

Hi Rob and Simon,

I dont have a super wide screen and when I have my browser window reduced a little from full zoom, I end up having to scroll left and right – hmmm not so good for users of old technology, who are holding back on upgrading to the latest, and wondering where the one they have will go 🙂

I also miss the colour from the old site.

I agree with Davie in that comment-maker’s website’s should be made public.

Sorry, there was an error in the code which meant that commenters’ websites were not showing, all should be working fine again now.
