Essence of Spring

Designer's Comments

Look carefully for specific instructions

Please do not change the images in any way. DO NOT REMOVE THE CREDIT. You can edit the navigation/content/etc as you want. :)

Tested in Firefox and Internet Explorer, and it should work in most screen resolutions. (made in 1200 x 800)

Oh, pls check out my little website. :)

<p><h1>About This Layout</h1>

<p>So... lately I've been wanting to make new styles of layout, and this is the result: a layout <i>thinner</i> than what I usually make (mind you, I never like skinny layouts), a completely different style of <i>navigation</i>, and then I tried something new with an additional <b>top background</b> tiled horizontally. I added that because the layout was small and thus left a big empty space to the right that I just couldn't ignore... plus, I have widescreen. Moreover, the <u>banner</u> is also more simplistic with only some coloring adjustments. The over all color scheme is also classy (in my opinion anyway, >.<), which mainly highlights the contrast between that lovely shade of pink (I'm particularly font of it ♥) and the leaf green. Yellow and dark brown also matches beautifully well with the pink. :) All in all, I like this layout a lot. :) I put a lot of work into coding this one.

<p>Anyway, enough of all that stuff~ This is where your <i>main content</i> will go (obviously). Fill up as much or as little as you want! XD It's all up to you! Please <b>do not</b> alter the images/layout in any way. And it goes without saying: <u>do NOT remove the credit</u>. I mean, I've taken the ultra long time to code this, so the least you can do is leave the credit there. But of course, you <b>may</b> edit the navigation, contents, and such to suit your website needs. ^^ I think you'd need some basic knowledge of <i>html and css</i> 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 <a href="http://www.createblog.com" target="_blank">CreateBlog</a> too.

<p>This layout was tested in <u>both</u> Internet Explorer and Firefox. In Firefox, the font of the text will be slightly different. Other than that, it works perfectly fine.... <b>compatible in FF and IE.</b> (I know there are some little glitches when you view the layout in IE (hint: the flickering nav), but it's beyond my patience and skills to repair them all. -__-") Therefore, it's best viewed in <u>Mozilla Firefox</u>. Oh, and it works in <i>all resolutions</i> too. :) Hope you enjoy it!</p>
