New Look

Posted: 1st July 2010 by jenni in Design, Weblogs

… here at the JenniClayville.com.

Last night, the theme I WAS using went a little nuts. I was thinking it was time to change the look of my blog anyway… so I just did.

There’s a lot of things I still need to personalize and fix up… but before I do, just wanted to get YOUR thoughts. Do you like it? Do you hate it? Is your opinion somewhere in between?

On a scale from 1 – 10 (1=SO ugly and 10=BEST LOOK EVER), what do YOU think?

    OH!!! John’s Standard Theme. YES! I was actually looking at that. It’s top three for me. :)

    I say the theme itself is a solid 9. There’s a few things I’d like to see different…like the name at the top being something a little more snazzy than “JENNICLAYVILLE.COM” but the overall look is bangin’.

    Agreed. That’s why I didn’t say anything… becasue I couldn’t clarify.

    diane (@machroi) and i were talking about how dark it was before. i love the contrast of dark and light… and it’s time for light. it’s a new season of my life, right? :)

    I agree with ‘lece. It’s a smidge off. I think it’s missing a personal touch. Love the dark to light though. Definitely thought about that the other day right before you changed it.

    thumbs up friend!

    Hmmm. .. . I like the grunge kinda look but the greys, just don’t strike me as you. I would think you are more colorfuil. . . .

    jenni Reply:

    you’re right. i like the grungy too. it definitely needs “some” color… but i’ve never seen myself as a “colorful” person… unless you count my language ;) my closet is mostly black, brown and greens. hahaha!
