your xanga really is very default and as many ppl will tell u, this place isnt really for that, but as long as u like it then its all good

the music list works fine, but then i guess its good for me cuz i use my campus LAN connection which is pretty fast

the background really does look like its very retro and not really in a good way, u could try using a gradient background with a simple pastel color

the rainbow scroll bar thing is just really annoying to me and very distracting, i would recommend doing something simple with ur scroll bars, like just making them 3d with no real arrow or something

the pink text isnt sao bad with the white background because it looks clean, but black background doesnt really work that well, looks a bit dirty

the header u have shouldnt really be that long and skewed, it makes your entire layout very lopsided and so it doesnt give a very good feel

the effect on the links isnt too bad, although u might consider making the links without underlines, that way the transition to the sparkly hover effect looks nicer

i would def recommend using div layers for ur content and if anything theres always tons of scripts in the xanga script section that would help out a lot and u can always look at other ppl's layouts and take wut u like from theirs

as it stands u havent had ur xanga for very long and as far as a newbie's site looks, its really not all that bad, i would just suggest toning it down a little so that it wont seem as intense as it does now, beyond that, its actually a pretty good first attempt happy.gif

ok. Were not really a default fan in the xanga showcase.

the rainbow scrollbar does't really match with the rest of the layout. Try making it simpler, but so it matches. Like pink and white.

Module interior shouldn't be black. Make it white so it matches the background and the blog.

Not crazy aout the long skinny header. It makes your Xanga look stretched out. Try shortening it a bit.

I like your background a lot!! But the blue in the scrollbar and header doesn't really match it. Although, I like the baby blue for the bold text and links, so I would leave that in. Believe me, its MUCH better than my first attempt!

Your actually not doing so bad. I like your idea of how you want the layout to work. Theres just some little things you need to fix. When they are I'm sure it'll be really nice!

You have a good start there..but I would suggest taking out all the navy blue you have in your layout and making it just so it's a pink and white layout..? Ionno :shrugs: You have a good start there..

don't worry about them, i found out really quick that people don't like default xangas. but don't worry, you will get the hang of it. good job, for a default. _smile.gif
