I tweaked my blog theme a little more. How does it look? Is it too dark? I have a few minor adjustments to make. I’m not 100% sold on the background, even though I love the leather embossed look. I may decide for something more… sprightly. Got any ideas?
I also found a really cool little graphic toy called the ASCII-O-Matic Generator. I uploaded my husband’s photo and look what it did:
The ASCII-O-Matic will generate a photo using type in letter and numbers. You can do it in color, too. It took some doing to get the photo to EXACTLY 60 x 50. It won’t accept anything else. And the photo must be a .jpeg file. But it’s fun and Hubs loved it!
Hat tip Ty’sBlog for the link.
I’m a married mom with 4 kids. We live in Upstate New York in an old 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, USAToday, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.

I really like the background, and don’t think it is too dark at all:)
