Ok well I made this uber simple layout.. in spring colors because, well, it's spring right? or atleast going to be very soon; the pollen is already here.
here is the linkage: free cookies It's very simple. I was wondering what you people thaught about it before I tried submitting. Does it need a background? are the colors okay? feedback please. |

I like it.
 Maybe one more color? Like pink? It could be added at the bottom with the flowery stuff. Otherwise, I love the navigation, I think it's very cute. Very springy. The date looks nice... WAIT! I don't think I like the content box at the top. I really only think a quote would look nice right there...but not everyone will do that. That's my opinion. What else would you put there? I dunno. If you moved the date up and just erased that, I think I'd like it better. Cookie?

splatter....I dunno. Personally I'm a huge fan of splatters, but it's already so simple and elegant looking, with the curved lines...play around?
Shade of yellow I think would look best: ffec62 Shade of pink I think would look best: ff67a0 And it's only my personal opinion. =P Both pink or yellow would look nice....but honestly, it looks nice as it is. I'm still loving that navigation. |

I love the layout but you should make the content box bigger or put it under the blog and raise the blog more. The colors can be blinding too.

I see what Heathasm is saying....you've got the whole thing with rounded corners but the navigation.
I'd hate to go back and re-do all that, though >.< That would be a pain. |

Actually it wouldn't be REDOING it.. it would be doing it. The links I have right now are just regular links, not images.
it's pretty impossible to do links like that in GIMP.. it would be a pain. =\ |

I really like it! The colors go together well, and I like the simplicity of it. I'd just say to get rid of the CONTENT thing at the top. :]

REMOVED THE TOPBOX: LOOK NOW cookies feedback please ----------------------------------------------- Okay now put the top box under the main content and move the main content up, so it won't have blank space up there or add a little design up there or some brushes. I think the extra box is a good idea but I didn't like the placement of it at first. |
