Numine.com: Seattle working-class blog

by Kat

After much head-bashing, I finally got rid of all the tables in my blog layout and switched over entirely to CSS. As you can see, I've made other changes since yesterday too... mostly vanity stuff like the new banner and navigation system, but I also added a wider main column, and tweaked a few things you probably won't even notice. :)

I photochopped the image myself-- again, after much head-bashing. It's a picture from Banff, Canada I took last October. I downloaded the font (which looks like that untouched) and the rest is done with brushes and layer alterations. Any thoughts? Any suggestions? Anything broken?

Oh hon it's so so so pretty! It looks beeeeeautiful and I'm loving your header image. The font I use on mine is a free download too - get this, it's called "Handwriting Dakota".

Don't you just love those brushes?!

If I choose a third template, will you spiff yours up again a third time too? ;)

J/k, it's really beautiful, I wish I possessed web n' graphic skillz like yours. I'm seriously so excited that you showed me how to change the graphics in the blog template design, hurrrr it took me long enough. But now I can change images, "BECAUSE OF YOUUUU!"

it looks awesome! I am super impressed! I wish I had the mad skills and patience to take mine more "from the ground up"...I just used the blogger template, and messed with it...and now I'm running into problems getting what I want. my code is such a mess. Oh well...i will live with what i got for a while. I love your header image!

ps. my verification word was "oatmus" i just find it silly.
