Custom Designs Outgoing!

|
I've done it! I completed my first design for someone else that wasn't a roleplaying blog. I have designed other people's blogs before, but they were all roleplaying Blogs for people I had played games with. (Remember Anson's blog and Relik's blog? Probably not.) This is my very first custom blog design for someone else's personal blog. I designed it for Catt over at Self Expression. Although, I don't think the Template is actually up there yet. You can however, catch a glimpse of it at my testing site here. This design I did 100% free and completely custom just for Catt because she had been struggling with her design. She blogrolled me because she thought I seemed cool and I enjoy reading her blog. I started from complete scratch on the style sheet and the graphics. I'll admit I went a bit Art Nouveau on the design because I found the perfect quartet of images to use for the blog by Alphonse Mucha. I adore Mucha and I thought the theme fit perfectly for a blog called "Self Expression". Even the background is a fabric design by Mucha. On a side note, I am still trying to get the skins working on my site here. I think I've almost got it. I won't actually link it in until I have at least four good designs to skin the site with. I'll probably go with the Kokopeli theme and maybe a Mucha Theme of my own. I'm open to ideas on what I design. I've been having fun with it lately.

Posted by: Andrea at March 14, 2006 08:12 PM Wow did you do the one with the Alphonse Mucha pics I love him my fav is http://static.flickr.com/1/18273_3014eeda6d_m.jpg Posted by: katkat at March 16, 2006 01:30 PM I'm impressed with your ability to make skins. Me, I'm impressed with myself for simply figuring out how to make the white in my header go away. Thats why your the rocket scientist and I'm not. -smile- Posted by: YummY! at March 16, 2006 03:09 PM Hey Yummy, if you want a custom design I'll make one for you. I'll even make sure there is someone flipping the reader off and mushrooms that don't look like they were markered in. Posted by: Utopia at March 16, 2006 04:17 PM Awww...thanks Utopia! I'm sufficantly comfy with mine right now, but I'd be glad to have you make me one, but only if you want to and if/when you have time to. Posted by: YummY! at March 16, 2006 08:55 PM That's awesome work Utopia...it's all chinese to me lol, I have no idea how to do any of that. I stopped by to thank you so much for the very thoughtfull comment u made on my blog about friendship.
