Just Fiddlin...

I'm just playing around with the color scheme and header.
I don't like this one, but till I have a chance to change it again (that is, when I decide to procrastinate when I should be marking papers) this is how it'll stay...

So don't be surprised if you see a couple more changes over the next few days!

I actually like the look of it right now. The header is so cool and artistic.

Eh, not my style either...
Funky is just not me

But hey, enjoy yourself!
:-)

Whoa. Have fun. Let me know when you're done. :P

(wanna work on mine next? I've needed to redo for a while now, had some ideas, but no time...)

Hey I actually like it.
It looks so... dreamy.
And so... creamy.
Doesnt it look like melted white and brown chcolate with a bit of custard and strawberry?

Mmmmm...

halfshared said...

illegal, totally! lol mmmmmmmm

Floating Reflections said...

Kind of doesn't suit the image I have of you - continue with the experimenting ;)

Bas~Melech said...

I like the concept and color scheme, and it's way better than what you had before, but the design could use some more work (there's something about the text that doesn't quite click) and I don't like the way it goes with the side/background color.

halfshared said...

K you guys are way too artistic. This page looks absolutely stunning to me. You would make a good graphic designer or maybe you can design clothing? Guess Bas Melech right now you are designing lives and that's what counts most.

I like the header...
I would change the color of the sidebars..

fiddle away
:-)

That butterfly reminds me of ohr nava. This definitely is more cheerful. The first was more melancholy.

AT PEACE said...

I love it!

The only thing I would suggest is matching the different greens..

Looking forward to more updates : )

How bout-

'If you want your dreams to come true, don't sleep'

corner point said...

Like the butterfly--it really does look like Ohr Nava

In terms of quotes, I just thought of (I think it was) the Ponevizher Rav's, "I may be dreaming, but I know I'm not sleeping..."

enjoy :)

This is so wierd, any comments that I posted on Thursday on anyone's blog didn't show up...

If you go with this header, please choose a template that will agree with it. Right now the background color doesn't fit so well.

Also, please soften up "The Dreamer" text -- it's appearing jagged, probably due to compression, and doesn't go well with the softness of the rest of the image and template.

Next: What is that picture?! If it's a butterfly, it needs to slim down. If it's a caterpillar dressing up as a butterfly, it needs to be more obvious. Maybe use a monarch caterpillar. (not sure if I'm reading this right...)

Oh, I just noticed you didn't actually ask for criticism... oh well, you can have this one free anyway :-P

This is the most pleasing but least original so far. If you want to stay here, I'd change the color of the top sidebar piece to coordinate better with the light green blob in the header pic. (this seems completely accidental, but I like the way the words "things I dream" come out accentuated by that green blob)

the dreamer said...

you're so funny, BM.
I didn't put up that pic - it's comes with the style of the page...

Yaffa said...

Gosh BM- was that all English?

This one's very nice.
I like that ball of green lite and the way its all fuzzy and everything.

Bas~Melech said...

Hm... I realized it was the same colors as the original, but thought the original was bigger... I guess it resizes to your text.

And I'll thank you to stop calling me BM. Bas will be just fine. :-P

Now tell the truth -- what was the thing really, a butterfly or a fuzzy caterpillar in disguise?
