    cindypepper!

    Cindy is a unique New Yorker with dark hair, glasses, a barely functioning camera, an incurable case of wanderlust, a huge appetite, and many a flight of fancy. She has a tendency to meander and take a billion photos of the things she eats. However, like any given person, there is more to her than meets the eye.

New Layout: Subaquatic

Sun 28 Mar 2010 at 4:32 pm  ♥  Filed under Site

We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to announce that cindypepper! has a new layout.

I’m usually not one to change layouts often. I’m quite stubborn about it. I usually spend a lot of time working on a layout that it just doesn’t feel right for me to suddenly switch layouts after a few weeks. But a few weeks ago, it occurred to me that I had had the previous layout for well over a year. I did like the layout, but in all honesty, I felt it was time for a change!

Back in autumn, I remember when Alexander McQueen (RIP) released his super amazing Spring/Summer RTW 2010 collection, and I knew that I had wanted to do a layout with a similar color palette: bright aquas and yellows mixed with muted browns. It took a while to figure out the concept of the layout, but a drawing, a marble texture, and several days later, this layout was born! It’s a little different from my previous layouts, but I hope the style is still recognizable! Anyway, feel free to give me some feedback! I’d like to hear what you think, and I’ll be updating all the pages in the meantime.

Interestingly enough, this layout is water-themed. The previous layout was earth-themed. The layout before that was air-themed. Do mine eyes detect a fire-themed layout for the next redesign? Hmmm…

And now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.

    It took a while to load but it was well worth it – fab artwork and the colours go surprisingly well together.

    It’s beautiful. The color combination works perfectly and I do love the font you’ve used for the titles in the sidebar.

    I love how you’ve incorporated your drawings (sidebar and main) and haven’t stylized it but kept its sketchy markings! Beautiful.
