Personal Theme Design Preview

The preview above is the not-yet-finalized version of the latest design that I’m working on. At this moment, the Personal theme looks ironically not-so-personal. Generic is more fitting. That’s because I pulled this design together through CSS design galleries. After finalizing it, I’ll show you all of my sources and show you how easy it is to simply mash up good lookin’ designs, then end up with a horrible lookin’ one.
By the way, just to clarify it for you, the name of this theme is Personal. It doesn’t mean I’ll use it for my personal blog.

Funny, it looks like Kubrick drenched in your current one =)
Maybe you should put some personal pictures somewhere to make it more personal
It looks really good… if you could replace that color.. and put an image there.. in tune with the background.. it will look better ( for me )
You may have a point there… a lot of your recent designs have been mashed together a little… can’t say it’s bad, and i can’t say that it’s a good way to do things either…. Good luck
After I read milo’s comment, now it looks like a theme in a theme in a theme
btw, I like the “date tab”

Could you please write some tutorial?
Doh Milo beat me to my comment
I like the outer part of the theme, if maybe did something a little different with the “Kubrick” part it would like pretty clean.
Really nice, will you give these designs away for free?
I know I know guys
. That wasn’t what I had in mind. That’s why it’s a preview.
Teknozat - The designs I’ve been creating lately will not be free.
Great looking design! Love the color scheme. Did you find the scheme off of Kuler?
Nate, it was on ColourLovers.
I like this theme, but maybe a blue or gray sidebar could be better.
It looks great, but as you said, not very personal. But it is still great!
I’m not too sure on this one, I’m usually a huge fan of your work, but I just don’t like those colours, nothing wrong with the layout, I like it a lot, but those colours make me feel a bit queasy!
gah those colours! That base dark green has got to go - that or change the rest of the template to fit. It also looks very uniform, and as other people have said not very personal… personal ones should have alternating graphic, a wide range of colour - or at least thats what I think to really ‘personalize’ it.
Looks alright.
Would look immense if it where free
Just kidding. It looks nice and clean. Not to keen on the colors tho. But I’m sure you will be mixing it up a little and posting it.
Haven’t commented for awhile, but SP I gotta say (with everyone else) I HATE THAT HEADER!! Nothing against you, though.
Very nice!
I actually like it!
It’s your style - very similar to this one in many ways.
I don’t think it’s that bad actually.
It has many unique elements.
Adjusting the color scheme may rescue it.
And the header isn’t quite working for me…
Align the search to the right.
And possibly change that blue-gradient area… It reminds me too much of the default Wordpress template.
I look forward to it’s final outcome!
Looks very nice, but I wouldn’t pay for it.
The green and blue combinations are totally isolated from each other which gives a feeling as if two layers are present one beneath the other.
Try to mix the colors, but those two colors in my opinion don’t seem to gel with each other. But I do like the outer green layout. If you could make the inner “layer” in shades of green or a matching color it would look awesome.
Very cool looking
Very nice.. simple and clean with nice colour combination
I like the green much better IMO blue is soo overdone online and even i over use blue.
Hi
I want to be part of your $5 themes per year. Will you be selling this theme within the same scheme? how do I be a part of that same scheme?
Regards,
Ronak.
Hi Ronak - Here’s the updated version. It will be a part of the themes club. Here’s information on the themes club.
Im missing the Home Tab in the personal theme. How can i add it?
I hope the background-color will be changed, the yellow is very guly!
I like this theme, has it finished yet?
