Proposed New Look for StevieSnacks
Anthony on
Sunday, December 6, 2009 at 8:14PM | Several weeks ago, I mentioned on the blog that I wanted to tone down the look of StevieSnacks. I'm a fan of sublety, and I felt that when I launched this new look in August, that some of that was lost.
Some of you expressed some opinions on this topic, so as promised, here are some screenshots of what I'd like to do. Let me know if you have any objections to what I'm planning.
The new look retains the dark background, but loses the full background image, replacing it with a banner in the background that fades to a solid dark color. There is no framing around the content, and the net effect, in my mind, is that everything seems a lot cleaner, less cramped. Not to mention, a lot faster to load because I don't have nearly as many images in the theme as before.
Here are the screenshots. Click on the thumbnails to see a larger version.
