I finally did it.

I updated the entire layout for Pink-Spider.net. I mean, I did quite the overhaul.

It’s pretty minimalistic now, but I’m really happy with how it turned out.

Getting it to come this far, was … well, quite the feat. First, I asked anyone I trusted what they thought. Then I made changes based on what they thought, trying to make it better. In the end, I realized it didn’t really matter all that much if other people were pleased with it… I mean, it’s my site and therefore my layout.

I have never used so much .CSS in a layout in my life, so I had some interesting test runs there.

Not every part of the site is done yet. The about section and the links I haven’t finished, but I’ll work on them so that the whole site is finally functioning.

You know, I tried to make a light, airy layout. But the two I attempted, I just wasn’t 100% happy with. I mean I liked them well enough, but I couldn’t see them as my site layout. Maybe I’m meant for dark colours.

Oh, and check out the ‘past’ page, because the tag cloud IS COMPLETELY AWESOME.

Edit: I have to fix the comments, but I keep breaking them. Therefore, they’re staying as is until I get some sleep. Damn you 5am. Damn you.

    Homg, it’s so cute! I’m glad you got it all up and done ~! I really like the spider picture, and you’re right the tags cloud on the “past” page is really awesome!

    Oh I love it and Greg likes it too (I’m at work). I especially love the tag bubble and I want to steal it for my site.

    “First, I asked anyone I trusted what they thought.” You didn’t ask me, do you not trust me???

    I’m gonna go cry in the corner.

    Thanks everyone for all your comments! I think I finally got the kinks worked out, and the comments page is actually looking decent. Phew!
