Past Layout Designs
This is where I put all my past designs for layouts. This is obviously not my whole portfolio since I lost a good deal of my old layout screenshots back when Digital-Shadow.net's host died and my computer crashed and lost all its information. And since then, I haven't kept track of my layout designs much. So these are all more recent designs.
Eulalia's Harp: (and all previous versions of it)
As you all know, Eulalia's Harp is my main site which used to be a collective way back when. The collective started back on Digital-Shadow.net, then to Copellias-Coffin.net, then to Lost Wing, and then today's Eulalia's Harp. Everything pre-Lost Wing has been lost.

Version 00: Untitled
Uptime: Late 2005 - Early 2006
Featured: Setsuna Mudo (I think?) from Angel Sanctuary
The version of my collective back when Li-chan and are were splitting our collective into two. I was moving here and there at this point and started here on fairy-fountain.net, then moved to colortheory.org, Li-chan (or Ceri's) domain. This particular layout was made from a really pretty Angel Sanctuary picture. Kaori Yuki has gorgeous artwork; they're so droolworthy. I had fun playing around with some effects on PSP and making some sort of weird blend with it and put it on a layout. XD The site here was very simple and only consisted of one page linking to all my sites at that time.
This was a very lazy layout, and the effect thing was due to the fact that I haven't made a layout in a ridiculously long time.

| Version 01: I Believe
Uptime: March 2006 - Summer 2006
Featured: ayaka
This was the first layout I had made in a lonnnng lonnnng lonnnng time ever since I stopped updating constantly. At that time, ayaka was a newcomer in the jpop scene and I was very impressed with her first single: "I Believe". I was rummaging through my CD scans I had from downloading songs, and I found this picture. I randomly decided to make this layout on the spot since I was starting to dislike the old layout. It was much too shiny. In any case, I was bored and started cutting around ayaka, make some weird rounded squared, clone brushed around... and somehow ended up with this. I was very amused that I could make a decent layout, and I stuck with its product.

| Version 02: Untitled
Uptime: Summer 2006 - March 2007
Featured: Mika Nakashima
I was bored of the iframes, and the iframe itself was too small for my liking. I decided to switch back to tables since I was over the whole iframe faze I had way back when I was a little. I was looking around for a random picture. At this time, I finally got around to seeing NANA, and I just happen to be staring at a random Mika Nakashima site. Guess who got onto my layout? This one was a fairly simple table layout with the Mika image fading into the blue. I really liked this one. Then I decided I needed a change. And my friends kept making new layouts so I had an urge to make a new one.

| Version 03: Sakurairo
Uptime: March 2007 -
Featured: Angela Aki
Midterms and tests, oh my! Amongst the midterm season, I decided I wanted a new layout. So, taking my recent obssession with Angela Aki, and taking her recent release: Sakurairo, I made a layout! I decided I wanted a sidebar with the tables layout as well, so I included that within the design. I personally really like the simple table designs like this one: they're easy to navigate and not too messy in terms of the graphics. I could only find a relatively poor quality of the Sakurairo cover, so I used it and I tried cleaning it up. The background for the banner is a screenshot off the Sakurairo PV. I had fun making the image longer so it would fit into my designated banner length. If you notice, the top two windows on the right are exactly the same. The bottom bit was cloned a bit more cleverly, but it was cut off when I decided to fade the edges of the banner. Everything else... just sort of happenned.
