Past Layouts
Display Dates: February 25, 2007 – June 9, 2009
This was an experiment site, in simple words. I made the layout after experimenting with PhotoPlus 6.0. There were a lot of iframes and javascript scripts (like clocks, calendars, etc). Oh, and I found the background on photobucket. lol Credits were given.

I conjured up this colorful layout when I upgraded my CSS skills. This one incorporated a lot of other non-original graphics, but I credited the original makers, of course.

By this time I wanted a pixel site. So, I used MS Paint to create a small & simple pixelled layout. I had successfully used rollover navigation in this layout for the first time. This was my first 100% completed layout, design and content included.

This layout featured Golf & Mike: two gorgeous Thai brothers who sang and danced like nothing I’d ever seen before. It was love. This was also the first time I used a blogging/updating system, namely CuteNews.

This layout was a result of my very first time using PhotoShop. When I began my freshman year in college, I had a lot of free time on campus between classes. So I’d go to the computer lab and maintain my site. They had CS2 on their computers, so it was heaven. This was also the first layout I had up with a purchased domain.

I had an idea as I was about to go to sleep one night. A Simple Wood layout. I sketched it out one day, and made it in another. I edited and improved the header and bakground later on. One of my proudest. :]

I wanted something new, I wanted something bright. Lack of color scheme skills + freeware brushes = this layout. I really loved it. And I was partly inspired by the “untidiness” in a lot of layouts at the time. Sure it was still compact, but this to me was like out there when it came to the css and header. xD It was one of my all time favs, an exact mirror of my personality. I would have kept it up forever, but eventually I did yearn for something new.

Once this layout was up, I mastered skins using a tutorial I found on Divergente.org. My intention with this layout was to have something darker and more elegant than what I had been doing in past layouts. And I had actually used an artist-recommended color palette from a color scheme book. ‘Twas nice, but I got sick of Cutenews pretty quickly. My WordPress layouts will follow.

This was my first Wordpress Powered layout! It took me an entire grueling month to not only figure out how to code this layout, but to figure out how to get it up and running without seeing error messages all over the site. Because I went through so much pain with this layout though, it means a heck of a lot to me that I was able to put it up successfully.
