Description This is a site I am currently working on. I am kind of proud of it, I've spent allot of time putting it together, and working on the interface. Right now, I am working on the PHP5/XML side of the coding. Today, I was working on the gallery coding, and working out my File structure, on how I was going to store the Images and Data about the Images.

Anyways, I thought I would post a quick preview of what I was working on. It has come a long way from the original layout. This is Version 3. yeah, I had 2 other ones, that where allot BRIGHTER, but one of my friends told me that it was "Too Centered" so I offseted everything, and that exposed darker colors, and before I knew it, the colors became really dark, and the whole site became what it is now. Which I do not mind, but Ashley ( The owner of the site ), told me that she liked it better when it was Bright. However, she does think it looks good as is. If you want, look at that new ID I submited a few weeks ago. I reused a texture that I made for Version 1 that I ended up removing. I figured I would never use it, so why not make an ID out of it..

Oh, I do have one request, does anybody have any suggestions on what i can use as a logo? You see, I have a hidden Admin Login screen.. if you look at the bottom you will see a Backwards D connected to a H .. "DigitalHive", its the only Thing I could think of. When you click on the DH, under it pops up a Log-in screen, just like how when you click Reply on DeviantART, a reply window appears. Should I just leave it as the backwards DH ?

Ignore the Username and Password displayed, that is just me echoing out who I am currently logged in as. I have different Admin Levels, and BetaTesterA is nothing more than a Guest User, and that Username will be deleted as soon as I am done with the site. When I was debugging, there was a problem with the Password encryption, so I was echoing out everything, and have yet to delete that part of the debug.

Some Details about The Design:

Girl: Ashley, she is the person I am making the site for. It is one of her personal photos she gave me to use as Stock photos, and I also used another photo of her to make a stamp out of, and I used her TShirt, to make a brush out of.. Yes, who would of thunk of using a Shirt as a pattern? What sucks is, I reset my brushes because they became too confusing, and forgot to save them, so i have to remake a few, if I can remember which images of her they where..

I pretty much made tons of brushes for this. except for I think 3 brushes.. 2 of them are paint splatters, I got them from my roommate, and I don't know where he got them from. Ill ask him, and update this later, if he even knows.. I used them Splatter Brushes to make the Smuges and Circles I made behind Ashley, seem more like Random Paint. Another one, I can't remember what it is, but I know I used another brush i got from my roommate, I may of covered it up with one of my own photos, I can't see it.. Other than that, i did allot of making my own brushes.. Few of them right off the back are of Ashley, and the City, Plus Hollywood.. I also Reused a few brushes I made for the DeviantArt design that I maded called "Searching for Love" if you compare the two, you'll see I used the same brush I made just for that design. I KNOW I AM LAZY, so BITE ME

The Background is a tiled Image I made, basically with clouds and a few other filters. The Original was really bright, but I dimmed it down. Then the Body background is the same tiled image, but darken even more, and then made the width 800, and then used that same brush I made for "Searching for Love", and stamped along the sides.

When I finish it, ill post the final results of the site.. but basically, it will look like this. I am waiting for Ashley to give me her content, until then It stands as blank.

Thanks,
