So Andrew is redoing my website for me. Making it look more professional, getting it off of Geocities, etc. Every so often he asks me questions about content, target audience, what I want to use it for, etc. Today he sent me this image and this comment/question."So after working for two months on a layout for your web page, I've FINALLY come up with something I don't hate. Honestly, I've been shuffling things and changing them and scrapping them completely about 25 times. I have a folder of bad ideas. So anyway, do you think I should keep going with this one, or keep working?"
At first when I saw it I thought it looked a little too simplistic. (And I have no idea what he wants to put on the inside. I'm guessing that when clicking on links that's where stuff shows up, but here it looks a little plain.) However, then after looking at it longer I think it's grown on me. I really like the font, and I love the little sketch of the toolbelt. He did a good job with that! Anyway, I am opening this up to any suggestions. Also, if you have any positive comments to say about your Toolbelt I'd love to include your comments on the site.

I realised that one of my problems was that I'm used to designing for text, and there isn't a lot of text to this (except for the testamonials). So hopefully this design will be more image-friendly.
Oh, and yes, things will be in the big blank space, but this is the framework for the whole page.
And why are the last three blog entries about me?
Three? I thought only two were about you? And Mel and Chris both told me they think it looks like a tombstone.
I didn't want to add my input yet until others did - that's why I held off. And since I told you last night, I figured I was safe.
But yes, I think it looks like a tombstone with a snazzy pink addition.
I, for one, love the toolbelt. I thought I was the hottest thing going in Minneapolis last year! I didn't look at the page and think tombstone. I would have to see what it looks like finished-maybe some real photos of the toolbelts with tools in them? I think so far so good! I'm excited for you!
still waiting to see if you post your first scrapbook page.
okay no scrapbook page how about an updated blog?
