Awesome, thank you 🙏 Looks great already!

Can we try to see how it would look like if we made the image a little bigger and move the date "inside" the image, and make the text of the date white?

[moteanup24]

ok! here's how it looks now--

Nice! I like that.

Can we try moving the date down a little bit (so that it aligns with the title) and to the right a little (so that it aligns with the logo)?

Would love to hear some other opinions in terms of how it looks @BoltTouring @Arvin21M

no problem! latest looks like this:

Would love to hear some other opinions in terms of how it looks...

Re: Date On Image

• I think it looks really good.
• It will be harder to see the date for images that are lightly colored in the top left area.
  • In such cases or perhaps across the board, a 0 to low transparency for the date might be the fix.

Re: Incorporating The Header Image

• I really like this.
• Breaks up all the text with something visually appealing (eye candy).
• I can be swayed either way, but image feels large in comparison the text to the right, however considering the aspect ratio we use, adjusting the size down may look too small.
• Will anything happen when the image is clicked (open the post in a new tab, open the image in new tab, something else)?

TLDR:

• Once adjustment of date placement from Gigi's feedback is addressed, if nothing else changes, I'd be very happy with this.

🙏

Thanks @Arvin21M!

The comment thread might be a little hard to follow so to be sure, here is the status of the current PR:

Nice! I think that looks really good!

One last thing: clicking on the image should open up the blog post. Can you please add that?

[moteanup24]

Apologies was tied up with family stuff for a few days, but pushed this change last night!

[dergigi]

Well done! Looks good to me ✅
