  This design isn't going to be everyone's "cup of tea," but I'm going to throw it out there anyways:

  http://wi.lli.am

  It's a CMS, powered by ModX, where I intend to keep my culture, art and lifestyle work.

  I just put it together over the past couple days, so I'm sure there's plenty I can do to improve. Any ideas?

  I think it's alright, you know - and I only like one brand of tea.

  Not too sure about the reverse navigation - feels like it's being different merely for the sake of being different - more so on the story pages than the homepage (it's the rollover rolling leftwards that bugs).

  Also unsure about the black text on red, but hey, that might just be me.

  Love the header logo type - is that any particular font?

  • which brand is that?– _salisae_1/2

    Well, it's not very posh (though it comes from a company with a long and worthy history), but Yorkshire Tea is a good brew.– detritus2/2

  • agreed. seems like you are ripping him. What makes it worse is that Will I Am is clever, but wi.lli.am makes no sense.– epigraph

  Overall the layout is nice, however the typography is a little heavy handed. I would like to see more contrasting font sizes and the chill a little bit on the line spacing...

  i feel like i have to sit away from the screen a bit to look at it, i find it a little big and high contrast. The images and bg are nice tho
