I tried to make something that looked totally different from anything I had done before. Usually my layouts are based on a photo, and have a dirty, aged look. I decided on something simple, clean cut, and geometric. Let me know what you think! biggrin.gif

Hmm I can't see the blog either. Like the boxes though. But get ride of the h. scrollbar. It seem s very plain for the black area though.

Btw, what effect did you use on the picture on the info part? Would you mind giving a link to a tutorial if possible? Thanks if you can, but if you can't, that's okay.

Yeah, I'm working on the blog glitch.... http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=83840 ... and getting very frustrated in the process. mad.gif

Well, as for the effect on my picture, it was mostly me adding the Sketch --> Halftone Pattern in Adobe Photoshop CS. I just specified the orange as the negative color and such.... then I just kicked up the contrast and played with the hue/sat. Sorry, it's kind of random. Trial and error can be hard to explain, ha. But the jist of it is the "Halftone Pattern" effect (not JUST Halftone...thatll look totally different.).

...is there more than one horizontal scroll? I thought there was just one on my info. I can't really get it to go away, since the content doesn't want to be any skinnier. *shrugs* I'll work it out later.
