Fine. I lied. It is actually one old + one new.

But I guess most of you didn't pay attention to my reply last time, so it is kinda new anyway.

First one: http://www.axieblast.../black/new.html
Second: http://www.axieblast.com/fresh.png

Fresh (the second one) might look a little bit messy right now, but it is going to have a lot of options regarding colors.

Please comment!

they both look good 3.5-4/5

Too much contrast between colours on the first one

And on the second one it looks (sorry if i sound a bit harsh ) like a playschool website. It is too colourful, and things arent aligned nicely - the "Home-About" thing is too far into the corner.

Well thats me good job anyhay (:

yeah I agree with pecky, alllthough its good

They have rendering problems on Firefox + Mac OS X.

@pecky: Well, I was just playing with colors in my second one, actually. I will have options to choose colors manually (without going into CSS) and all those stuff. I was just trying some different and new things, see if it works. The menu right now does indeed look messy... I will try to fix it when I port it to HTML. (Look at the post title, comments, etc. I try to leave some extra background below the title... I was trying to do the same thing with the nav menu)


@Zarel: Seriously!? It even works in IE7! Mind screenshot?

[pecky]

Cool love to see it then

Zarel it renders fine in firefox for me?

It's just minor stuff like this. Although I realize your second one is a PNG, so it would render that way on every browser.

I'll get out my Mac later to take screenshots of the problem in Mac OS X. Suffice to say your designs should account for the fact that others may have different fonts than you.

Ah those, well, I got lazy and just left it there. You can't see it until you zoom in that big anyway.

But I used some of the most basic fonts? I mean, Century Gothic and Trebuchet... how uncommon are these fonts?!

EDIT: Sweet, the theme is approved into WP Theme Directory. Yay! http://wordpress.org.../themes/surreal

Century Gothic is Windows-only. Trebuchet MS is a Web Core Font, but still relatively rare outside of Windows.
