Dylan recently moved from London to New York and started a blog called, appropriately, Brit Out of Water that We recently completed a new, custom WordPress theme for. Dylan initially wanted to go with Typepad, but after conferring with him, we all decided that WordPress was his best option for what he wanted to do. He switched his hosting over to us at Blogs About Hosting and We launched his new site with his fabulous new design. . .

The design, itself, is a mixture of London meets New York meets Americana. The London skyline overlooks the Manhattan skyline, with a few Americana-type accents thrown in for good measure, along with a “Days out of Water” countdown at the top of his side bar. The graphic work is all custom, with the help of some sharp illustrations Dylan choose to use from iStockphoto.com

We wish Dylan the best of luck with his new digs – - meaning his new blog home, and his new home in NY!
