So I'm Rebuiding... What you think thus far?
 

Okay - so I've finally started rebuilding my poetry site after the devastating issue with HostV left me shaking my head in frustration...

I've decided to go with another subdreamer install with vB integrated. I've been working the past couple days building the style I call "JPiC 3.0"

I'm going for a sophistocated look with a soft color pallette, keeping a very similar motif as my JPiC 2.0 style (creams/purple/dusty rose) and I've decided to play around a little with the green color in the logo quill.

custom css - xhtml menu with a nice mouseover effect...

Whatcha think thus far?

Looking good! ;)

Thanks Bob!

It's looking great. I like the colour palette you have used, definitely gives off a soft and warm feel.

Jacquii has always had a good eye for color. Maybe one of these days I'll pick her brain and see what she and I can come up with for my site. ;)

I have to say I love the colors and how you have put the design together! They work perfect

The quality is very good but the color choice is a little feminine for my tastes...

Thanks everybody! LOL @ the feminine comment - It's called "Jacquii's" Poetry in Color forum and Jacquii is very much feminine, despite her penchant for off-the-cuff rants and the need to be in control :P

I am trying to not "overdo" it - so I've introduced some masculine elements that balance out the style well I think - will post additional screens as it nears completion ;)

Update on the style (image is rather huge - almost 1MB):

Thanks again for taking the time to comment everybody!

I know this is a little old but wanted to have my two cents worth - I think it looks fantastic and I hope that your new host is alot better to you than HostV
