The Magnificant Mephisto Migration
December 10th, 2006
Notice any difference? Yeah, good guess! This website is now run by Mephisto.
Mephisto is honestly one of the best blogging engines that I’ve tried. And I’ve tried a lot, from Radiant to Typo to old standbys Wordpress, Textpattern, and Expression Engine. So here’s a go with Mephisto, and so far I’m highly impressed. It’s fairly fun to use, and the admin interface is beautiful.
Oh yes, about the red. This is a work in progress. I decided not to migrate the old design, partly because I wanted something simpler, partly because it would have taken too much time, and partly because I was sick of it. So your feedback is appreciated, because as you can see, there is room for improvement. In any case, the colors are probably here to stay, and they hint at some things to come.

Hey Ryan,
I’m definitely liking the new look for the blog. Nice and simple. However, for the rest of the site it feels a bit too plain. But maybe I am just a little too used to the old design. The colours are definitely fine though.
Anyway change good and I look forward to seeing how the site continues to evolve and for the hint of things to come.
Peace and God bless.

Looking good, looking good!
I bet I can answer what the colours are hinting towards. ;)

I’d be interested in trying Mephisto. My blog uses wordpress and I find it a real bear to customize. Is Mephisto any more intuitive?

I like it.

Matt: Mephisto is much more intuitive on the backend, in my opinion. You can try out a demo of Mephisto with u: admin p: admin, here – http://demo.mephistoblog.com/account/login
