help! layout help needed!!

[urbanlights]

okay, so i'm stuck. I was trying to go for a spontaneous flower burst effect with this layout, but right now, i'm hating it. Any ideas? Or should I just start over and make a new, completely different layout?

You can see it at http://i679.photobucket.com/albums/vv15 ... ayout9.png

I saw scratch it, and start again, lol...

[urbanlights]

Haha okay sweet I will (:
I'll start on a new one now!

[Kitty]

Good luck with it

okay, i finished making a new one
I made two versions, I'm uncomfortable with both of them; they just don't look very good to me
let me know what you think!

*NOTE* [I know that it doesn't look centered right now, but it will be centered when i code it; this is just a preview of what it'll look like coded]

VERSION ONE ::

I like the second one better...

Hm, it's hard to give suggestions because I'm not sure what you don't like about them...

Okay thanks (:
and I don't like how simple they are and how much empty space there is in the header image on either side of the leaf-looking things

Version two looks much, much pleasing. Perhaps adding a pattern on the background would make it look less empty. Do that and see how it looks then. Also sharpen it a bit. It looks a little blurry at the moment.

I like how simple you've kept it.

Okay thanks so much! I'll try that and see how it looks (:
