Well, you had what must have been 1.0 without the stub, which I believe was before I came around.

My line of thought goes like this…

2.0 was similar to what you had yesterday, except both sidebars on the right, then recently you switched to content in the middle and sidebars on either side. I’d call that 2.0 and 2.1 probably.

This would probably be 2.2 or 2.5 or 3.0, but I consider dropping a sidebar a reasonably big deal, and you made a number of other features and changes, so it’s prob 2.5 or 3.0 in my mind. I’ll leave the 2.5 option in there since it’s still the ticket-stub-esque theme.

BTW… I’ve been wanting something similar to what you’ve started with Live Wire… I’ll probably be doing something similar on my site over the summer. By that I mean a sticky-post-type-thing separate from the main content, not necessarily the same content as yours, but similar on the back-end/coding side of things.

John: I feel the same way – definitely much cleaner now. Sometimes three columns on a blog becomes way too busy and that was part of my motivation to strip away a column and focus on the basics.

Kane: No way I’ve done that many changes…have I really? I should go back and highlight all the changes I’ve made in the past half year or so. I consider my periods as follows…

1. Pre-ticket stub — the site sucked.

2. Ticket stub 1.0 — the site still sucked.

3. Ticket stub 2.5 beta (current) — the site looks better, but god save us from the “writing” (in quotes even!)

Man you change templates like my grandma changes wigs. By my count this is the 4th major look you’ve had since last December when I tuned in. Anyways, well done, I like your style.

SUMMER CAMPPPPPPP!!!!#$^@&&
