Design Envy

After spying Prop Your Hips Up's recent redesign - and it is quite snazzy! - I began to develop a serious case of Design Envy. It's not that I don't know enough HTML and CSS to do that sorta thing to my own page; I did, after all, modify enough stuff to create a blue-based template that does not exist in Blogger's library. It's just that I don't have the mental energy to do it all from scratch for myself.

Therefore, I hereby announce a design contest. First prize: unending fame and fortune, or at least a line of credit on the bottom of the sidebar on every page. And just for playing, you'll receive my boundless gratitude. To participate, you don't have to fully redo my template, but your chances for winning improve with the more work you do (creating graphics; choosing fonts; coming up with new, "themed" sidebar titles; hacking through the CSS for me). It doesn't really matter though...a cleverly drawn picket sign would be terrific, too.

Go ahead and email me if you have anything to contribute, or want to help me hammer out some ideas.
