What do you think?

So, what do you think of my new layout? Too much red?

I've been debating making the links the same colour as the visited links (ie, switching the links to the darker red), because I'm wondering if the red I choose for non-visited links is too bright. I'd then change the visited links to something else.

I should really start writing again, instead of spending my time obsessing over things that don't really matter all that much.

Still...let me know what you think!

I'd use the same sans-serif font you've used for everything else, in the point size you used for "I think it's 'cause we're so awesome." Just keep the currently italicized material in its own space, with unified leading so it's obviously a discrete element; I don't like the extra space you have between the lines "monster" and the next one. I think the attribution should go directly below the quoted lyrics. It's too lost now. If you do that, you have a good excuse for not resorting to italics or even quotation marks to indicate your quoting someone else's work.

Where to put your name? Probably the lower left corner, in the same font and size as "Many a Vanished Scene."

To be sure the graphic with text comes across the same in all browsers and platforms, remember to imbed the fonts in the artwork before uploading.

Hmm...ok, I'll play around with it some later.

Unfortunately I have no control over the black panels, so I can't put anything on them...so, any text besides the "Many A Vanished Scene" and "I think it's 'cause we're so awesome" can ONLY be placed on the image of Sam and Dean.

Oh, I see. You have to stay within somebody else's guides. Argggh!

Ok...couldn't figure out what the equivalent font in Photoshop was to "I think it's 'cause we're so awesome"...so I just went with a non-italized font.

Made my name a bit bolder...

Moved the attribution up.

Shortened the distance between "monsters" and the next part of the quote. (Also moved it around a bit, so it was better balanced in general.)

Let me know what you think.

Oh, that looks perfect! Good work!
