aha!! yeah, that little baby of a code, is something that i have been meaning to take a look into for a real long time now...but i guess i have gotten so used to not logging in from the main blog page that i hardly bothered now. but yeah, thanks for the poke, will try to work things out.
as for the wacko theme. guess i am too old school (i still prefer the html old school blogger to the new themes and XML widgets)...so my blog looks just the way it did, say 3-4 years back.
thanks for taking out time to review it. if you want to then you can take a peek at the other blogs i have through the 'my blogs' link in the side bar. a few contradictory styles to the main blog...
