Description Pretty close to the final version I was hoping for. I don't think it's quite done yet though. Something is missing in my mind. Keep checking back for updates.

*I'm trying to keep the whole 'Dark Fella' theme going, that's why it's so dark.

It's done in CSS, or to add it to your gallery just add to the jounal css section. To do the CSS, go into Update Journal, and at the bottom it says "CSS Beta". Enable it, and go at it! Lots of CSS journals on deviantART, and online. Takes some practice though.

This is just an awesome design. The way you have the mood box lined out horizontally. Very different from how you usually see it. I tried that in one of the layouts I'm working on but it's very buggy and wouldn't work in IE at all!

polegnyn In reply to ??? [2007-05-08 00:34:57 +0000 UTC]

I'd make the your "Fello" look toward your journal. This way it directs the viewer toward the the journal instead of off and away from it. Or were you wanting it look toward your dA gallery?

And, I agree with Jaded-Mandarin about the logotype in the header appearing small. However, proportionally, I think it's the right size for that space. I think making "JOURNAL" a little smaller would make the logotype appear larger than it currently is without making the entire logotype too large for that space.

As for the "Not sure what to put here yet" area... Just leave it out, imo. You have links to everything you want people to visit. You also have three featured projects which is plenty. And to be (brutally) honest some of the friend avatars may distract from your overall clean and fluid design of the journal. Especially if they are animated or the colors contrast sharply with your design. But they are friends so that's a tough one :-/

Hey, thanks for the really detailed feedback. I really appreciate people who take the time to do these kind of things

I got a lot of work left on this, I have a feeling.

polegnyn In reply to polegnyn [2007-05-08 00:40:05 +0000 UTC]

or actually... why not just place your "fella" on the right side of your logotype? This way it's looking toward your dA gallery as well as your journal. You would need to switch the shadowed "fella" (currently on the right) to the left, though, or possibly remove him completely.

'store' isn't centered.
and for the bottom divide it into 3 sections with vertical bars 'inset' in that blue glow and put:
listening to (etc) | friends | stamps/clubs
