Howdy Y'all,
I got bored whilst watching Ghost Whisperer and decided to create a layout. This is completely all from the depths of my brain, no inspiration from other sites (which is why it's rubbish) so sorry if it looks anything like another layout you've seen before i guess...
Anyhow, i know this is a very early work in progress, but i've gotten to the usual point where i'm stumped on what to add. Everything i try just makes it look like a typical boring layout. I'm looking for some not so commonly used ideas to spice it up a little. That's where you, the HabboxForum community come in :D
I just need to know what i should fill the rest of the space with. I guess i'm struggling because i wanted to design a layout for a form of online discussion thing where people can comment and debate on world events, videos, games, anything. A sort of forum i suppose.. Just without the... forum. So obviously, seeing as this is something i've just made up as i go along, i have no idea what i should use the space for. Like what content should it hold?
Anyway, ideas and comments appreciated. I'll update this thread as i go along with new screenshots and stuff as it progresses. As always, i'll release this layout free when it's done for anyone else to code and use =]
Could you please also comment on the color scheme and such. Could you please also view the layout in full before commenting on how awful something looks. Also i'm looking for constructive criticism. Not just 'its crap'. Thanks.
