I was trying to do something with one of the new templates. There was a color scheme I had in mind but no good backgrounds really. I've been wrestling back and forth with crap all night. I wanted to convey a mood and say something significant at the same time.
Ended up with this intense-looking moon over an angry outline of night clouds, and the picture itself was nice, but with the text over it, I couldn't help but crack up. It ended up creating this over-the-top impression, as if I was delivering this Romantic-era sermon on the top of a jagged cliff with a cape and a top hat. Hard to explain.
I couldn't find any good abstract backgrounds that were getting the desired effect either. They were all too busy or if they were simple enough, the color scheme wasn't quite right.
Might try something later. But boring works for now. Better than crap. Or ridiculous.
