What do you guys think of this layout?


Ashley Tisdale Version Blue

I already submitted it. I think it's the best one I've ever made, but that's my opinion and what are yours?

i'm not a very big fan of the colors. i realize you did the tables like that in attempt to match the picture, but i think the blue should still be toned down some, it's really bright. i would have kept the same color border on everything, you have one blue on the picture border and another blue on the tables border. i think it's just too many shades of blue that really aren't very related to each other if you know what i mean.






it's not bad over all, it's fairly clean. that box at the top that scrolls dates is going pretty fast imo, but that's just a minor thing.

^ I agree. the colors you picked dont match the banner at all. The banner is nice tho, except for the font which looks like you just stuck it on there.

Not bad. I agree with Javonn about the blue. The blending (extracting?) is done pretty well. The background is a tad bit boring, and the ethereal-glow thing is a bit overdone (looks like you blurred it a lot). It's clean and simple, though. Way to not go overboard :]

The text for "Ashley Tisdale" is a bit pixelated - if you're using Photoshop, make sure you check the box for "anti-alias" or change the aliasing option in the dropdown menu to "smooth," depending on what version you have.

IDK, maybe it's just my personal preference or whatever, but IMO the banner is much too blurry--no one else commented on that, so maybe it's just me.

Despite the colors or banner, I could actually see someone using this.

maybe a softer color to match the banner

Yeah the blue isn't bothering me, at least she's matching stuff this time. You could have use another color other than blue like grey. Your font choices is better. I think you over did the angel grow you was going for. It's low quality, you still have to work on using high quality pictures. You have improved and this have a chance of getting submitted but don't get your hopes up. I've seen worse accepted though.

I do think the blue is just a little harsh like jc said.

It is one of your best though, keep working at it. :D

The blue is a little too much. But besides that, there's nothing too appealing about the layout as a whole. I mean, sure, if you're infatuated with Ashley Tisdale then this layout is ok. The banner is nicely blended, but it's still a bit plain. Not a big fan of the font/text on it, either.
I think it's a good start, though.

Well like everyone else said. That blue is too much. WAAAY too much. Hurts the eyes and looks a lot like the default blue assigned to links when theres no CSS on the page for them. Pretty Bland. Try other colors, something outside of that blue. On the header as well to give you more to work with, more colors give you more freedom on the other CSS bits for the rest of the layout (header, links, etc.). I pretty much hate blue, and this adds on to it.
Anyway the marquee for the updates section is a little to fast to catch up with and read.

Also its pretty weird that the tisdale off to the right is soo far away from the other two and the one in the middle is too close to the one on the left. Would be better to center the one in the center a little more (push more to the right)

not to be repetative but yeah, the blue is a little much.
the banner works really well though and i can see how you tried to link the colours.
its good but could probably do with a different colour in your tables :]

Blend is blurry yea, and the font choice could have been way better. The blue needs to be toned down, other than that it's fine.

Ehh. The blue and pink tones are good imo.
The font for "Ashley Tisdale" should have had a outerglow, stroke, or drop shadow, or at least one of those to make it more eyecandy.

Needs some neutral colors, but nonetheless, i like it.
