Request for feedback

[ksmith]

Webmistress Ruta and I are looking for feedback on the new design for my website. Twigs or no twigs? Too dark or okay, how do the colors and texture look?

This one is plainer: http://www.kristine-smith.com/newsite/index-green2.htm

This one has twigs on the home page: http://www.kristine-smith.com/newsite/index-green-branches.htm

Both home pages link to a test page and the writer's corner page. But nothing links back to the home page with twigs, both inner pages link back to the plain home page.

None of the pages are complete, of course. We're testing colors and look. The site looks lighter on the Mac than in most Windows or Linux machines.

Thanks!

I like the concept of twigs ... but I don't like the implementation. I don't think the twigs work where you have them placed.

I read that you were thinking about using them as dividers ... have you tried shrinking the twigs down to a much smaller size and using it as a border around the entire outer, light-green edge? I tried the images at about 50% and it seemed to work decently well ...

That's a possibility. Or I may stick with the twigs as dividers. Stil a work-in-progress...
