plainbeta’s New Look is Finally Coming

Yep.
The time has finally arrived.
I am seriously going to have a fully custom look for plainbeta.com.

I have it drawn up in PSD format and have a static XHTML and CSS version.
Over the next few weeks I am going to start putting it in a format for Wordpress. It’ll take a while because I have a bunch of custom feature I am going to employ.

In the mean time I thought I’d share a preview.

plainbeta’s new look is going to be a dark grid based layout.
The grid is absolutely beautiful, I am surprised I came up with it.

There it is - though I have all of the content fields covered. So it doesn’t look that great… but the grid is still beautiful.
It shall be employing a few elements I have never seen used and several that I rarely see.
So this layout could be considered an experiment - I hope it goes well.

I am also still working on the World Design Association and the blog should be ready by the end of the week with the launch to come a few weeks after that.
I’ll keep y’all updated on that.

Until next time!
