New layout & WordPress theme featuring a goldfish

Today, I offer you a premade layout and matching WordPress theme, both featuring a photograph of a goldfish. This layout had a short tenure on Absurdist.Org, though I've tweaked its color scheme a bit before relaunching it as a premade here. You can view a screenshot of the original color scheme if you're interested and let me know whether you think the new one is an improvement over the old.

In other news, I'm looking for new affiliates! If you're interested in applying, please head over to the affiliation page. If you know of any good graphics sites that you think I should know about, please contact me or comment on this post.

Rise of WordPress themes, demise of PNGs

As promised in the last update, my newest premade layout Mechanicus has been converted into Neogrotesque's very first WordPress theme! And with it, the WordPress Themes section of the site is now open.

Some of you may have noticed that the Transparent PNGs section is no longer linked in the top navigation. After some heard thought, I realized that I really don't enjoy making transparent PNGs and, as a result, that section has been neglected for quite some time. You can still access it through this link for the time being, but I will be taking it down at the end of month. If you want anything, please be sure to grab it while you have the chance.

New mecha-style premade layout

I've added one new layout today, entitled Mechanicus. It features a photograph that I took of a clump of wires, and I think it has a mecha-type feel to it. It was once my blog layout, but has been modified quite a bit for its "rebirth" as a premade. I'm also intending to make this layout into a WordPress theme soon, so please stay tuned.

Also, if anyone's interested, I've finally caved and gotten a Twitter account. It will feature update notices from this site and my blog, Absurdist.Org. Please follow me if you're interested.

New layout & avatars featuring CG artwork

I've been into generic (that is to say, non-JRock) graphics lately, so today I bring you a layout and some avatars featuring a piece of abstract CG artwork I did while playing around with filters in Photoshop. The design is a bit unusual for me, but I like it a lot and I hope you do too

Admittedly, I made the layout in order to enter Visualization's science fiction graphic challenge (the banner for which appears below). Wish me luck!

I also did a little pruning for the avatars section. Sorry if I deleted some of the ones you liked, but I just couldn't stand to look at them anymore. I think it was for the greater good.

Polls: WordPress/LiveJournal layouts, wallpaper sizes

Lately, I've been toying with the idea of possibly offering either WordPress themes or LiveJournal layouts to Neogrotesque and wanted to gauge whether my visitors would be interested and which would be more popular. I do have several LiveJournal layouts available at Crazed-System, though it hasn't been updated in quite some time. On the other hand, I know that WordPress has become quite popular and I do have some experience working with it on my own blogs in the past. The other thing I wanted to ask you guys about is wallpaper resolutions. What screen resolution(s) do you use? I currently offer 1024x768, 1280x800, and 1280x1024, but I have no idea what resolutions are actually common among my visitors. Please vote!

Polling is now closed. Thanks to everyone who voted.
