New theme for my website

[johnny]

Hi ppl!

I need your opinions and help. I made two themes and want to know which one you think looks better and how i can improve them. Ignore HTML and CSS errors, they will be fixed in the final version. It's just about the look.

And here the current one: http://www.weblinkz.ws

blackblue looks nice

 

[warezrock]

off course blackblue look nice

All too plain m8, needs some "action" going on in the skins.

 

[Raven Faust]

ya both theme's are basically the same bro.. only change is color..

 

[johnny]

I know, i know... That's why i am asking for suggestions on how i can bring life to the theme. What would you change?

 

[4tw]

The only difference between the themes are it's colors, I prefer BlackBlue though, also I must say, you need a new logo, I don't like what you have now. :P

I can make you something if you'd like? Feel free to PM me and I'm sure we can make a deal.

 

[johnny]

Thanks for your offer but the theme is in an early stage, so i want to wait with the logo.

What's wrong with my logo actually?

Second imo.

 

[Anja]

They're all very similar and quite plain, but I'd say the current one manages to pull it off nicely because it's very light.

 

[johnny]

I have a problem with the dark colors myself because dark colors make a plain website look even more plain, not? But anyhow i like it though...

blackblue but I'd customize it a lot, eg new logo, better contact page, move the stumble button and customize it (maybe under the stats tab where it will be used), better looking friendly sites affiliates list, default logo for sites without favicon logo, make the search more obvious, etc etc.

 

[johnny]

I'm thinking about to change the arrangement of the listing items (website title, countings, url, etc.) to make it look more clean. Affiliates to the footer. The footer links to the header under the search field. eg new logo. Good?

 

[pi0tr3k]

First for me

 

[DeLeTeD]

out of the choices id go with the second one. Honestly they all are plain and you could do a better job.

 

[johnny]

thx deleted for motivating me.

Been a bit creative with GIMP. Here's the result.

I know the curves can be done better, but how do you like the idea?

 

[DeLeTeD]

yea thats alot better, starting to look more then your plain orginal html layout. Keep going with that.
