New Layout and the making of a new Banner


I'm sorry about my online absence, but i'm back! And with a whole new site re-style!
I tested everything and it looks like it all works, but if you happen to find something that isn't right, links not working, pls let me know! There are still some small things i want to tweak, like font color, maybe sizes, small things.
I also hope the colors look as good on your screen as they do on mine. I'm so frustrated with different screencolors, so i'm hoping you're seeing the site as i designed and intended it. Let me know what you think!

This is one of the first drafts of the new banner. I thought it might be interesting to show how it kinda evolves into what is up on the screen now. I liked placing the little angel girl prominently on my site, but then my Love said that the pink Ismoyo girl shouldn't disappear. And he was right. Plus the fact that all my promo items have the ismoyo girl on them and i really don't feel like having to change it all, or to not be consistent (angel girl on site, pink girl on all other outlets).

Here the ismoyo girl returned. It's starting to look 'right' but the circle behind the girl is missing something.

Tada! Made some changes, took things away, added new things (cute sewing notions, so ismoyo!). As you can see, the circle behind the girl has been replaced with a pink jewelry setting which i also used for some buttons on the right side here.

Oh, if you have some time and feel like browsing, don't forget to check out the updated Links page! It was about time i gave it a once over. Want to see where i hang out online? It's there! If you feel left out, was expecting to see a link to your site or blog, don't feel hurt, i might have accidentally forgot to add. Leave me a comment/email and i'll fix it!

Glad to be back here, hope you're still here with me!
