This is a concept for a new blog design. I don’t know if I will have time to finish the concept and put it into action but after a few comments by Daniel O’Connell relating to a similar looking piece of work, I decided to prototype a few bits. I still need to show how images will look, YouTube videos, links, tags, tag cloud, blogroll, search box and comments. Also I want to tailor this to include my latest Flickr uploads (possibly in the photography section) and my twitter feed, something I didn’t do in my current theme as I didn’t know I was going to use them as much as I have.
I will keep working on it and post up a more polished picture in another post.
Here are the results, comments are welcome.


Here is the same but inverted. I prefer the impact of this one but unsure as to how the blog will look further down the page when the background is all orange.
