About Me?





You can talk about random stuff here... I dunno. Short introduction of your site? Or yourself? Maybe write about your latest site updates. Or put some pictures here (but the width of the picture shouldn't exceed 150 pixels). Well, you decide. =)

About This Layout....




This is where your main content will go. Fill up as much or as little as you want! XD It's all up to you!





Please do not alter the images/layout in any way. And it goes without saying.... do not remove the credit. I mean... I've taken the time to code this, so the least you can do is leave the credit there. But of course.... you may edit the navigation, contents, and such to suit your website needs. I think you'd need some basic knowledge of HTML and CSS to be able to fully make use of this layout. But it's nothing too complicated. There are plenty of tutorials on the web, and even some on CreateBlog too.





This layout was tested in both Internet Explorer and Firefox. In Firefox, the font of the text will be slightly different. Other than that, it works perfectly fine.... compatible in both browsers. ^^ Oh, and it works in all resolutions too. :) Hope you enjoy it!





This is bold text.


This is underlined text.


This is italic text.


This is a link



THANKS!!

Some of the coding looks very familiar. Your font and link attributes are the same as dreamgurl36 with this layout of hers. You even stole the "About This Layout..." bit and changed it to say "The." That's not cool.

The layout itself isn't very good. That split between the two mirrored images shouldn't be there. The bright-pink brushes in the banner don't match the rest of the layout, and the blue for "Sugar-Blossom.net" doesn't match anything else.

Well, it's better than your last one. The brushes are a bit cliche, but they're not bad. I don't really like the reflection effect or the text for your site name, and image looks a bit odd. You're improving, though. :)

after looking at the layout from dreamgirl and yours
the coding and style does look a lot the same.

Im not so sure about the top picture. The picture of the girl just seems a little disorted and it doesnt seem to be cut out that well.
I like the bottom though below the picture
but after seeing the comment that jaeminnie it makes me wonder if you just jocked the whole layout and just changed bits of it to make it not look the same

The image isn't very good, though. I don't like the brushes. It looks like you just used a PSD and mirrored the image. You should try to edit the image.

That is dreamgurl's coding...You probably shouldn't post your code if you took it from someone else. No one probably would have noticed if you didn't do that. What's with all the jocking business going on in the Showcase Booth lately?

You really should have asked for permission to use her coding. Geez.

Uhm. Yeah. Stealing code = bad idea! Come on. It's just as easy to ask as to post this in showcase.

But, uhm, the graphic is also very..cliche. The brushes. Font. It's so..old. The blue for the font, as already said, doesn't really match anything. The gap in between the images is incredibly distracting and is the first, and kinda the only, thing that my eye really notices. Also the cut out of the girl is very choppy and pixelated on the edges. Those need to be smoothed out a bit.


I know that, like, 92% of this post has already been said above. Heh.

Well, the image of the girl looks like its warped or somethin. And it would look way better if you added an effect to her or added a texture or somethin. And the blue doesnt match the pink =))))

The image quality is horrid, and don't try taking others coding and calling it your own, especially around here. You don't want your site put on blast, and well its against the rules.

Personally, I think your topic should be closed and you can take another stab at making your own layout again, but of course I can't do anything about this now XD
