Blog hesitations

As you might know I’ve been planning to create a blog for myself to use as a blog/ portfolio. Yesterday i had alot of time to work with it and got most of the job done. It felt great yesterday but today… iiih >_<. Its not looking right!

My first idea was that I wanted a really simple blog where all the focus would be on the posts and not have any distracting design but small illustrations here and there to add character. I’ve had the illustrations done since a couple of days but I just cant find a way to incorporate them nicely.

Roght now its just a big white blog with small illustrations,  its looking way too plain.

Im doubting the colours too, now Im thinking I want it to have more impact but thats also the exact opposite of what I wanted at  first :D.

Ive gone from wanting it to be as simple as possible to wanting it to be a statement.

Im thinking of using textures and really giving the entire site a strong look. Wich would be cool if I want it to be a porfolio too…

Right now when I look at it and how plain it is I just think of what Im actually capable of doing and that it would be sad to conform with something so simple. However, I also know thats since its such a personal project  It will be extremely hard to ever be satisfyed with it to a 100%.  Theres always new ideas and thoughts poppping up.

But it is actually looking to plain right now so if I could find some middle ground in between ”clean & simple” and ”themed with impact” it would be cool. :]

By the way, about an hour ago I suddenly started freezing and I felt a cold sneak up on me. Swineflue perhaps? :0

I hope not :(
