Yea my first and second templates. The first one sucks, like most of my stuff i started it and didnt finish it. but i touched it up abit today. http://www.deviantart.com/view/32569580/ This one is alot better (my second) spent alot more time on it. http://www.deviantart.com/view/32569713/
About the 2nd one: Looks great, very clean and stylish. Just needs to be a tick darker imo and texts need to be darker to read it properly 1st one looks pretty cool, but content area needs alot of work
I do not like the first template, but i believe that the second template has some prospect of looking quite good. My advice would be to stay away from the overused pixel fonts, especially with borders, and to also make the text in the headers more readable.
the first one needs more work, both the banner and the content. The second is much better, but some details like the member, theres a dropdown menu, but if u get many members isnt it going to be a big dropdown menu? Just a thought... And the latest templates with a scroll thing, are you going to show the templates in that window, isnt that going to show really really small templates? Just another thought... And the pixel fonts+ the outer glow or stroke make them very hard to read. And the navbuttons need to be a darker shade of grey. I still like it though, very relaxing... B)
Pretty ok designs, but ive seen that flowery logo way too much. Keep it up though and try with a fresh new logo.
