It's simple but I like it. The only thing I would recommend in changing is the glow you added to the text. I think it's a bit too much. Just lower it a bit. Or maybe it's the font. I dk, it's one of those two but I think it's the glow. What's your theme?

Yeah, I was thinking about that. I was just trying to make it so that you could tell the glow was pink, but you can't really. The theme is just a basic, simple, professional-ish type I suppose. I saw "Bolginka" earlier and I'm doing a version of that, just a tad different. I was just gonna make it for my personal one, but I might submit.

Yeah you can't really tell it's pink. It's more of a white. Are you using Photoshop?

I'm not familiar with "Bolginka." I googled it & didn't get much. What's it about?

Yes I use photoshop. I didn't spend much time on it, so I'll fix that. =]
Bloginka is Katinka's myspace, here.


Yes it is a brush from summerair at deviantart with a glow added.

Wow I though "Bloginka" was a movie or something. laugh.gif *facepalm. But wow I really like that layout. Can't wait to see your version of it.

As for the glow, I'll see what I can do to make it more of a pink versus a white. I'll edit.

Lol, sorry.

I think I may be using the last one I posted, with the blue. But I did figure out how to make it more pink on the second one I posted.

Oh I didn't notice the edit. I think the blue one came out better but it doesn't really match, imo. The pink one matches but it looks weird. "/

I was messing around in Photoshop with the glow techniques & this is what I got: shrug.gif

Haha. I always get this question whenever someone sees I have "END" open. Well "END" is my little pre-written rejection letter that I use when I go through the queue. I use the same format for everyone but I just put my reason why I'm rejecting their work. And yeah I was listening to music. I'm always listening to music lol.

Agreed on the 1st edit looking weird. I used lighten on the 1st and the color dodge on the 2nd.

Wow. our computers are exactly the same. Except you use safari instead of firefox.
