After reviewing the look of my website as a whole, and not just individual pieces, I decided that it really wasn't portraying what I wanted my website to do.  I wanted it to be about golf yes but for some reason the grunge look of the website wasn't really connecting the idea of the web with golf for me.

I am starting now with a really plain template and am going to revamp the entire thing, which will give me more room to play around with and hopefully put more of myself into the design.

Week 14

     

I chose a blog that was more plain than the rest, in order to make it easier for me customize and notice the customizations.  I chose the elegant grunge theme, I liked the style of the photo's with the shadow, almost polaroid effect, which gave my posts a real grunge feeling, which I thought went along with the outside nature of golf playing against the weather and so on.  The header was customized to give it a handwritten effect, which shares qualities of the scorecards used during the round.  

I wanted to use a site that was golf orientated at first, but than decided that most of them were too green, or too "golfy".  I wanted the website to be about golf, but also about me and my own personal thoughts about current golf issues and my own rounds.  Not just an informative website loaded with as much golf graphic as possible.
