ok, got the majority of my new style worked out...it is not yet complete, as it is missing the banner, a couple of modules, and i will be tweaking the layout a bit before it is complete...i hope you all like the color scheme, i know it is a bit dark, but that is intentional....while i may try some slight changes to the colors of the various text and link sets, the colors are designed to seamlessly integrate with my primary site, "Visual Angst", and it's associated apps (guestbook and forum), which i spent obscene amounts of time creating the templates for...i created the entire look and feel of "Visual Angst" as an abstract artistic concept...i personally like how the blog looks on its own, but it will, i believe look and feel much better once i get the main site back up and all elements integrated...i am sure that some of you will find the look/feel to be disturbing, unsettling, and/or depressing, too bad
Please let me know what you think so far, good or bad...and as it evolves keep letting me know how i am doing with it...i welcome all input and suggestions, and will reply to let you know you have been heard...if anyone asks, i am happy to go into boring detail about what i am trying to achieve

Posted by: veronica at July 12, 2003 03:37 AMOhhh yeahh! I love the new design. A LOT!
And, I don't recall if I wrote back (if I didn't, I'm sorry) to tell you thank you for the "site rating." I saw that and HAD to use it. Thank you for being so gracious.
This color scheme rocks!
Posted by: margi at July 12, 2003 07:56 PMthank you both for the positive feedback...it provides that much needed impetus to continue working on the style
Posted by: Angstman at July 12, 2003 08:21 PMThe site looks AWESOME! Love the colors - doesn't feel dark at all - more meditative than anything, and that is appropriate, I'd say. Congrats to you bro - I don't know shit about xml and am way impressed that you've got all this under control -
