First of all, thank you. I did try that but my issue at the moment is, I have so many different colors in my items and lots of them don't match the main color scheme so I end up with a gross clash of colors. For instance, I have a collection titled "Pink" and it's not a color that would go well with my bright orange and reds. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Oh and I LOVE your shop!


Well, the only thing I can think of right now would be to put a border around each folder image in the same color as the text you're using now. If you have to, you can tone down the color intensity on each thumbnail, but I'd stay away from that if I were you because it makes them less noticeable. They'll probably still clash a bit, but at least you'll have the border to tie them in with the rest of the shop.

And thanks, glad you like my shop :3


Thanks for the suggestions ^.^ I'll see if I can't get it to work! Grin

I just put mine up, just made them clean boxes.

I was wondering, do I need to dress them up?

I wouldn't mind some feedback.

Thanks

That is a real cool mix of colors on your site. I think the black would pop as a nav up top.

hey citymix,
what if you made the outline border a metal-looking, thicker frame, and then filled the squares with something like is in your banner--like that bluish streaky stuff at the top right?

That would give it some pizazz, make the icons pop, add color, and match the theme of your site.

Just don't ask me how to make them! ha ha.

Hi Alina,
Thanks for the thought, thats a good idea. I was looking at it today, and while it looks clean, I does lack some of that pop that you were talking about.

So maybe I should tie it in with the blue a bit more with the designs.

Kind of tie in the whole site together.

Thanks for the ideas.

I completely reworked my Home page with the categoy folders. I also added some css to make the folder structure more fluid as you adjust the width or for different monitors. Check it out here.

Hi Alina,
So check it out now! I changed the icons to use the colors of the header like you suggested and changed up the size of the bozes a bit too. I think they look a ton better! Thanks for the great suggestion!

Hi,

I've belatedly got my custom icons on my front page, I went for the scrollable rather than showing all icons due to the amount of cats I have.

I think it's looking good.

Check them out!!

Zoespeak glad you said something. I'm new to Zazzle and keep getting that little circle with the line when I hit add category or file or whatever. Same problem-Mac OS, Firefox, too old to upgrade. I guess I better hurry before old mac senior is too old for zazzle. Or I guess I could lower myself to use the library for that part...
