Another Clovis Layout
Posted by Megan on July 28th, 2010
Filed under: Website

After a little over a year, I have made a new layout for Lisabee.org. The first layout to grace LBE since its conversion to WordPress was “Artistic” a Code Geass layout featuring Clovis la Britannia, and it officially debuted 7/1/09. This is the second, and the second layout to showcase Clovis. It uses fan art from Pivix (credits at the bottom), and is titled “A Light Heart.” Amber mentioned the layout being warmer than the last one, and with that and Euphy’s comment about the warm colors Clovis used in his paintings, the layout was named A Light Heart. Why Clovis? Because he’s my favorite character after Schneizel, and he’s so underrated. You never see him in graphics, so I use images of him. If you don’t understand why he’s so likable find a translation and listen to the Code Geass sound episode Teikoku no Kyoudai. Clovis actually became governor general of Area 11 for Lelouch. I have been testing this layout out for a few days now, and getting opinions on it. I decided it was finally satisfactory and decided to switch them today. This layout was hell to work with. I spent at least 30 hours struggling and tinkering with it. The layout took a little while, with about 28 layers and 3 textures, but the coding was the real issue. There were a lot of problems with it (WordPress doesn’t like me) and even after those problems were worked out I still didn’t think it was good enough to use. Now I do. Please let me know what you think, and anything you think might improve it. If there’s a problem you see I want to know, so I can find a solution that my visitors will like.

The layout looks beautiful! I really think you did an amazing job with it. I mean, wordpress doesn’t like me either and i can’t pull this off lol

I like the soft colors. it has a spring vibe to it. :)

ps. is this supposed to be in all caps. I feel like I’m shouting lol

Megan on July 28, 2010

Thanks. The layout so far has been getting pretty good reviews.

I think it takes an exceptionally talented coder to make good themes for this platform, because I always hear about people grappling with it. WordPress is a real bitch.

Yeah, the css for the text in the form is set to uppercase.

This layout is gorgeous. I love the colours, mostly. But I have a problem reading the links because the blue is much too light. And I can barely see what I’m typing here in the comments box as well. I know everyone will have a different opinion though.

Also, I don’t have that big a screen so I have to scroll before I even see any text.

All in all the layout looks lovely, just those two things I’m fussed about. :)

Thanks for dropping by~
I agree, fall is so much better than summer >.< I wonder when this heat will end… I can feel myself melting!

By the way, very cute layout you have here. I'm so happy to know that someone else likes Clovis and, especially, Schneizel since he's my favorite character in Code Geass. It seems like everyone around me fancy Lelouch and hate his brothers… So sad…

Megan on July 29, 2010

Yeah, fans of both of them are pretty rare, it’s always nice to find another fan of one of them. I love Lelouch, and his brothers (well, just those two, who cares about Odysseus).

The layout looks great. Like you said, it’s much warmer than the last one. It’s always nice when a change is drastic like that. The only issue I’m having is with the headers. I can’t read them on my computer because of the lightness…or perhaps my old age. D:

I can’t comment on the character or anything since I don’t know much about anime/manga. All I know is Pokemon and Sailor moon. >.<

The layout was definitely worth all the time editing, its stunning, the colour scheme is brilliant!!

I’m lazy now I use wp.com so no real designing for me anymore :p

I don’t really watch much anime/magna, but the icon reminded me of sailor moon :) used to love that show so much!!!

Clarisse on July 30, 2010

This layout looks amazing! :D I’ve never really been much of an anime person though.

Even after I’m finished with my layouts, I spend a lot of time changing small details last minute, haha. I could be “done” with it for like a week and still not release it because of all the changes.

I don’t tell other people about my beliefs, thoughts and doubts because I’m sure that there are a lot of judgemental people out there. You have definitely made a good point about religion being evil though. That’s given me more to think about, haha.
