Design Meme Redesign

DesignMeme.com has just had a face-lift. Actually, a face-lift would imply that the previous design was sagging, but it wasn’t, so let’s just call it … a chemical peel! The old design is gone, and in it’s place is a fresh new design, with a color scheme that resembles the look of charred, post-chemical peel skin (and that’s not a bad thing!)

The new design is drastically different from the former, in color, texture, and style. The header is a beautiful Photoshop piece, and has a sort of Leonardesque (as in Leonardo da Vinci) feel to it. I especially love the drawn underlines when hovering over a link; now that’s what I call innovation! The background-image on hover is something that I, and many people, never would have thought of.

Congratulations on a job well done, Stuart!
