ahrfoundation.org site redesign

Hello all!
I’ve been rather busy the past few weeks with a complete redesign of ahrfoundation.org.
For a start, we’ve significantly pared down our category listing. While remaining true to the original focus of this blog, the tagline has been tweaked to:
ahrfoundation.org: An esoteric blog exploring
occulture, philosophy, spirituality and magick.
As you may have inferred from the image above, our banner has also changed. To the right of it, we’ve added a nifty feature that displays randomized quotes taken from various sources relating to philosophy, spirituality, magick and occulture.
We’ve changed the structure of the website. Both sidebars have moved over to the right, and we’ve removed a lot of features that weren’t being used, such as the calendar and tag cloud.
Posts are now organized into four main categories, the latest article of which will always appear at the top of the page for quick linking:
- Essays & Opinion which features longer articles about current trends in occulture and essays on techniques;
- News & Shiny highlights people, podcasts, books, art, websites – anything that may be of interest to occultniks
- our Reviews section still covers book reviews, oracle reviews, film reviews and media reviews of all types;
- and last but not least, Saturday Signal is will continue to be our occasional links round-up of the new and nifty that didn’t quite warrant a dedicated post of its own.
As a part of the redesign and rethinking the blog, I’d like to open it up more to the readership and make it more interactive, so if you’re interested in contributing, please see the new submission guidelines or contact me.
I’m sure there will be a few more changes in the coming weeks as we get settled into the new design, so please stop by and let me know what you think!
The site is best viewed in Firefox, but please let me know if you have any difficulties in this or any other browser, or notice any irregularities in the design.
Psyche is the editor of ahrfoundation.org and the curator for the occult resource SpiralNature.com, Psyche also operates a tarot consultation business, Psyche Tarot. She has been published in The Cauldron, Konton, Tarot World Magazine, among other magazines, and her essay “Strategic Magick” appeared in Manifesting Prosperity (Megalithica, 2008).

Looks good!
Thanks!
It still needs a bit of tweaking, but overall I’m pretty happy with the new look.
