Lol, it's meant to be messy. Otherwise I wouldn't have put in the text and the weird brushes.

-Alignment issues whened viewed at 1280x1024
-The background text is distracting to the text
-Font color too similar to background
-Theres too much emphasis on the background and not enough on anything else

It has alignment issues even when it's viewed at 1024x768, so I gave up since it can't be custom-tailored for each monitor. The font colors were what I was worried about, but I didn't want it seemingly too separate from the background. I removed most of the text and made the color tone bronzer and darker. Easy to read now and much prettier.

Thanks for the comments and criticism.

you should align everything left and make the top left corner the reference point. Then you can just code by pixels

grunge look is cool. nothing really seems to match, like the colors, and it's sortof messy but it looks nice nonetheless. happy.gif

I tried to make the text darker, but it just looked weird. My past layouts have been too straightforward with the color schemes, so I did something different (came out messy).

Oh, the aligning-left thing. Okay then happy.gif .

i love the messy-ness but i don't think you should have put the brush that you used over her face... it doesn't look right. well, the rest is cool =)

That was bothering me, too, but it looked too plain with nothing there. I could've chosen a better brush, nonetheless. It looks fine to me overall.

As for the blog, I didn't want it taking up all the space and have people scroll everywhere, so smallness is a factor.
