Overhaul! New Blog Theme

I spent ALL DAY yesterday coding my blog.
The thing's a nightmare to sit down and rearrange.

The Blogger code uses XHTML, JS, and other crap all inside CSS.
It's insane. No, it's a NIGHTMARE.

I spent forever trying to get my menu bar to work I'd previously given up on... Turns out, it was all Photobucket's fault.
With my luck, I'm not surprised.

I got it almost finished, and it's a lot nicer than before. What I decided was relatively simple: Use Moonlight Bestowal as a background. I made all of the other colors match, and I enjoy it. I wanted something watery and rainy for April, so I got it.

It's all blue! Blue is my favorite color... I could look at it all day...

The results are pleasing.
I wish the title area looked better, and I'll fix it, but not now. It's ok for this minute. When I find what I want I'll figure out how to put it there. I still am not sure...

I'm gradually changing the code, and it's becoming less and less restrictive. I remember back when I added my third column... that was a lot of fun. NOT.

Coding other people's code is annoying, no matter how carefully it's documented...
The Blogger theme I started with? Minima Black.
If you look at Marianne's Blog, Green Blue Purple, You'd see mine in it's early days, minus her ocean pic. I love her ocean pics, though...

Wallpaper and Brushes

I haven't done too much in PS today.

I've been needing to change my blog background for the wintertime, though.

I want to make a snowy wintery one, like Lee did at Leetopia.
It'll be cool when it's done, but I've been kinda stumped as to how to start.
It'll come to me when it's time, I guess...

I've been finding cool wallpapers for my laptop... I wish I could show them, but they really aren't mine to share... let's just say Flickr and DeviantArt have many wonders...

So... yeah... I've been expanding and renaming my brushes. I will probably get on it today... I'm excited to get started... after this, I will get a Christmas one going for December.
So I finally have Photoshop projects to do... and I'm ready...
