About the Designs

Tell me more
I've done this for a little bit now so I'm pretty familiar with putting a blogger site together. However, I think it’s nice to offer them for free, plus I like making them anyways so it’s nice to have them put to use!

Why are these free?
They’re really a couple of reasons why I do it for free. First off, I have no idea what to charge being that I’m not a super fancy designer. Second, how do I get paid and all – it could potentially be a lot of hassle. Third, I just like it to be free.

Are these all the templates that you have?
I have so many more, some just I didn’t like enough to think people would want, others are in progress, or others I just forgot I had. I also do custom ones – see the next question!

Would you make a design for me based on some ideas I have?
I like to do custom ones because I think it gives you a design that is unique to you and your style. Please send me your ideas, even a couple of websites you like as well as your blog address so I can get a feeling for who you are and what you might like.

How long does it take you to make me a design?
I’m in my second year of medical school, so it’s not that I don’t have free time, it’s just that I don’t always chose to do blog designs with that time. However, as long as you are patient I am never too busy for you. Some people I’m done with the design within a week because they don’t want too many changes from what I started with. Other people (especially custom design) want a couple more changes and that takes time- up to a month. It really depends on what you want - if I've already got a template, then it's quick and easy. If I'm buliding it from scratch that's something else!

What platforms do you do designs for?
I’m still primarily on blogger. I had a lot of free time over the summer and I got so busy with design requests that I never really did get a chance to work with Wordpress too much. However, that’s why I use for my own site so I probably can pull it off as long as you don’t have a super complex design request.

Where are the images hosted?
I began with hosting them on my own site, its easiest for me in the design process. However, I think I may be switching to photobucket because the images tend to load faster and when there is a problem with my site everyone else is affected. If you have a specific request either way, let me know.


About the Thursday Thirteen Headers

Can I use these even if I don't save the images to my own site?
Yes, although if you would them to your website that would be good too.
Do I have to credit you?
Not if you don't want to, but I'd love to see your TT list with the header.

Will there be more of these?
I think now that I’ve made 26 of them I probably won’t make any more. If you have a special request for one though let me know, they are pretty easy to whip up.
