Should TON Do Some Work?

I hate change.
But there comes a time when it becomes necessary to improve.
For instance, the blue and orange background you see now has been my layout since I started this blog nearly four years ago.
But as things change (this blog predates youtube), this layout may have outlived its usefulness.
Is it time for TON to choose a new layout that doesn't cut off widescreen youtube vidoes?

Are you so lazy you can't do it yourself? Blogger makes it pretty easy... just go to templates and pick one

And YouTube went live in February 2005... is that claim true?

Semantics:

Domain activated: February 2005

First Video Uploaded: April 23, 2005

Beta site launched to public: May 2005

Official launch: November 2005

TON is the Poop's official provider of technical support services.

How does not wanting to do his job make me lazy.

You ever see Will Smith laying down beats for DJ Jazzy Jeff. No, because they had clearly defined roles. He's the DJ, I'm the rapper.

Plus, I looked at blogger's templates and couldn't find one that fixed our width problem without getting rid of the sidebar.

And this blog was launched to the public on November 3, 2005, before youtube.

Yes, but the beta site, much like GMail for years, was available to the public, so technically, it came first.

My template accomodates wide screen and the sidebar.

It's the second one on the list of new templates - stretch denim

Scza, do you even have a blog anymore???

Holy crap, I don't check for a few days, and this is what happens?! I thought I went to the wrong blog at first.

Anyway, still getting used to this design. If you don't love it, I can make changes, or alter your original one to be wide-screen friendly (now that I've been publicly called out).
