About the New Blog Design


I wanted to take the time to share with everyone the list of sources I used in creating my new blog design. It would simply be too much to place all the badges on my page & so I decided to create this post. Once it goes live, I'll link it to the bottom of my page :D Why not share all of the awesome with you all?! The best part of it all- I didn't have to pay a lick for any of it. More of a reason to give credit where credit is due.

The Social Network Buttons

With many hours of editing & changing things (using Photoshop CS4), I finally finished my design. To avoid messing my old design up before I was ready to take this one live, I used a 'tester blog'. There are still a few things I want to design (ie, another button for the blog & a siggie) but for the most part I can't stop staring at I'm pretty darn happy with my design accomplishments.
