A reminder about art!

[denise]

We have an art resources thread containing user-submitted art and photographs for people to use when designing system styles or layouts. The last news post had someone asking for more styles/themes with art, so I thought I'd remind people!

(What I'd really love is for someone to go through that art resources thread and pick out some really nice photographs and use those as header images, with the rest of the theme designed to enhance/go with the colors used in the photograph.)

For anyone passing: the Bannering layout was designed for making a style around a header image! Even people who don't know CSS or any programming can make a style that way.

Heads-Up was also designed to be an header-image layout! And if anyone wants to make more egg-cats I've got the layer files around somewhere (or you can direct-edit the existing ones)

I've been tinkering with some layouts designed around some of the art submitted in that post (here's an example) but the layout only really looks good if the content area is the same width as the art itself. Are fixed-width layouts all right, or?

[denise]

Hm. We generally want to go for non-fixed-width, but let's say yeah, we can have one fixed-width style if it looks better that way!

(When you submit the style, be sure to mention I said that. Heh.)
