New Layout

[EDIT]
Thanks guys for all your suggestions and comments on the layout. I’ll change and edit the design. 😉
[/EDIT]

shirt I got sick of the busy layout two layouts ago – I made a simple dark layout – I didn’t like it, it was unfriendly and I didn’t want to look at my site – I create another “busy” layout which you are looking at now. At least it is friendly. 🙂

I got inspired by this shirt I bought (move your eyes to the left). At the moment I can’t find my camera, so I’m posting this hot stranger. Well, the t-shirt itself didn’t inspire me – the colors did. I sat infront of the PC, opened Photoshop, double clicked on the color, looked at my shirt, looked at the colors in Photoshop 🙂 I think it turned out quite ok, no?

I have two blog entries as drafts: Dream Cheating and The messynator. Explaining the first title – I had a dream a few days ago that Alex needed to earn money and I made the suggestion that he should work as a callboy and sleep with other women. Long dream short – in the end I didn’t want him to sleep with other women. Argh, I hate it when I dream of him cheating. I’ve dreamt that more often, let’s say about … three times in two years of our relationship.

About the latter post title – seeing I’m so busy with class right now my apartment is taking over… ME! The mess rules, the mess has total control over me. I am was good with cleaning the dishes, but now they’re just one big pile. I have piles of papers on my couch (my couch btw, turned into a closet and desk) which I need to organize – soon.

Ooh, if I had money I’d get a cleaning woman. I hope I’ll dream about that tonight…

  1. Initially, I thought, “Wow, this is boring AND stuff is popping outside boundaries!” But then I reloaded and I’m seeing the new theme. 🙂 Looks good except for a couple areas: the comment textarea sticks out beyond the edge of the main area, and the calendar looks a little strange with its gradient beveled look since nothing else in the layout is beveled. I really like the main navigation tabs; I haven’t seen them done that way before, and it’s cool.

  2. Nice 😀 I love the colors, I always thought that pastels went well together, and not that many people incorporate brown. (Which I think is a mistake on their part cause it’s a perfect neutral color.) I hate dreaming about my man cheating too, it makes me wake up mad at him until I realize that it was just a dream, lol.

  3. Haha, the same thing happened to me with my last layout – i looked at my shirt saying “President Evil” in a wild west font, and that’s how it all started 😉
    BTW, this layout is great! 🙂

  4. I love it! 😀 The slight texture on everything looks so nice! Everything merges so nicely – well done. ❓

    As Sarah mentioned; the textbox goes over the edge of the layout.

  5. I love the new layout! I have two suggestions, though: First, I’d “flatten” the calendar. The rest of the layout is flat so I’d get rid of the beveled look to the calendar. Second, I’d use a different color for your italic text because the pale blue on white is hard to read. Other than that, this is one of my favorites of yours.

  6. i like it alot! The colors are really pretty and go very well together. I need to learn wordpress better i cannot do anything with it right now besides customize other people’s themes.

    That dream is normal. Ive had it before. I have a theory that i believe in about dreams and most of the time it’s true. Dreams are made of either one of these.

  7. nice layout! and it’s funny where we get our inspiration from. can be found in the smallest things.

    i have a chair that reminds me of your couch 😛

  8. I love your explanation of how you got the inspiration of how this layout came about. It’s so cute and well unique that a shirt and its colors made such an impact on you. You did a great job. My husband and I have to do a super duper good cleaning job over this weekend since we have someone coming to deep clean our carpet next Tues. I sooooooo hate cleaning, too and I used to work for Merry Maids… yeah ummm ick to that job.

  9. OMG, Tracy, this layout is AWESOME! I love the colors and positively love the design! YAY! 😀 WOOT! ^_^

    Zomg, I hear you on the messy-ness! I really need to clean up my space soon before Chaz goes crazy. XD

  10. Hey there! I love the new layout. The colours are really neat. I can see how the shirt inspirsed you, ha! Hmm…the tabs over there are really cool as well. Well hey, take care!
