I finally finished redesigning Brandon's blog today. It looks good on Internet Explorer, FireFox and Safari so I'm assuming it looks good on other browsers as well. Check it out. (I suggest reading his wicked posts, too.) It's on the simple side but that's what I was going for.
C&C? |

The indent in the sidebar is mad wide. Can you decrease it? I'm also not a fan of Lucida Grande.
Other than that, I like it. The contrast between the grey and the colorbars and cranberry colored text is nice. |

I don't really like Lucinda Grande, either. It was just the default font of the Classic theme. I changed it to Arial, though. Thanks, Carrie!

No problem. You might want to update your sidebar, by the way.

I love everything about it, maybe not the colorbars as much. They're a little "rainbow" for my tastes, but if that's the style then just ignore me lol. Good job. :)

I like everything but the rainbows. It's not because I'm not fond of those things, it just throws me off because of how masculine everything else is.
You did a fantastic job, Mike. |

It's not because I'm not fond of those things, it just throws me off because of how masculine everything else is. You did a fantastic job, Mike. I agree about the colour bars. I think they make the design look less masculine just because there are so many colours. Not to mention they appear at the top, under the sidebar, AND at the bottom. So I removed the stripes below the sidebar, which I think solves the issue. Thanks, ladies!

QUOTE(WarMachine @ Jan 22 2009, 11:24 PM) I'll get to it. I'm actually posting right now. Sweet. Also, I suggest adding a little "About Me" section at the top of your sidebar since you don't have much information about you on your site. Or any kind of information besides your blog, really, unless that's what you prefer. |

This is pretty good. I get that you were trying to bring some color to the layout, but I think all the brightness is kind of random.. (No offense meant, of course.) Maybe try a more muted palette? Nice setup.

Oh and Brandon, are white middle aged women allowed on your forum? :p |

Yeah I'm not feeling the rainbow bar so much, tbh. It just looks random. I think burgundy would look better. I like the textures you used but I don't like how it overlaps at the top right. I'm picky about things, I know. But other than that, I like it! I love the simplicity of it. Great job.

^ Yeah, I think sticking with a more subdued/less varied color combination would look good too. I love kuler for ideas.

It reminds me of Kanye's myspace layout, only better.
