Or for a simpler alternative, though the first one is a solid and easy to code, position your div layers by how many PIXELS from top and left/right and not %. In this way, even if the resolution increases, your image size remains the same and thus your div layer will still be in sync with your image size.

If you're really interested in perfecting the skin so it can be used easily by bloggers, regarding the positioning of the div layer, perhaps you would like to try an sliced image map cum tables coding (with the particular div layer now used for text a td with the part of the image that is supposed to hold the text as the table's td's background image.). Slicing is very easy to do with Adobe Photoshop - you can google online or just search the left toolbar for the right button to do it. In this way, you can cut up various parts of your image for navigation & get perfect positing across all resolution with the help of tables instead of div positioning. Practice will tweak this skill to perfection and prove very useful with your other skins.

Thank you :D

Sorry, icy_nellycy I would appreciate if you read this a few posts back:

To all potential commentors: xDD

Try not to ask for comments for your skins because the internet is not my priority lately. :D

Hahas, I use frontpage too, I actually meant a graphic designing program like Adobe Photoshop (adobe.com) so you can make/edit graphics. :D

Or for a cheaper alternative, PSP is a good program too. :D

As for FF, it's mozilla firefox. :D It's free! xDD

Okay, first I must set this straight. I'm a designer too and I understand how it's like when most ppl just rate for the sake of rating or leave a rating without any comment, but if you take designer seriously, you must understand it is the designer's job to set the basic features straight. Sure, we can't download all the browsers and operating systems in the world, but there are an increasing number of people using FF would might really want to use a particular skin and yet the designer is unwilling to make an effort to at least test it in one more browser. It is your job to exploit the existing loopholes so your skin's users can use it with ease. Moreover, please appreciate that some people do take commenting seriously and try to give constructive criticism. (Note: I do not mark your skin down for this because there's no link.)

Okay, forget about that. Onto the skin. xD
Your colour scheme is well done in general. :) However for the border of the poker cards may I suggest orange instead of blue? I undestand your colour scheme is based on yellow, green, red and blue but blue seems rather dark and outstanding that it catches my attention first hand and instead of your title. Switching the colours of the border and your title may better help it blend in with the rest of the picture.

Even though yellow is part of your colour scheme, it fades in with the white background and makes it difficult to read. Do try a darker shade or colour.

The sidebar is very squashed. You have 800 pixels in the smallest of resolutions so do stretch your layout further. Make it at least 170px so users with lesser HTNL knowledge can copy their cbox or tagboard code directly onto your blogskin.

On the overall, I can see that much effort has been put into it so continue to make better skins! ^_^

Your colour scheme is very pleaant-looking. :) The different shades of pink you've used blends very well with the picture itself. ^_^ However, the pink of your image doesn't seem to coincide with the pink of the background, probably you can fix that? ^_^

I like those three jumping thingies in the sidebar. xDD However, your marquee in the text box is very distracting and can be easily shifted as normal text to the sidebar.

You might want to fix your link and header colour - white is too light and fades in with the background. Try a darker or slightly lighter shade of pink or if you don't want to whole skin to look too pink, gray might just do the trick.

Nonetheless, I liked the way you used brushes to create a dreamy feel, hahas. I think it'll appeal more to the guys though, yet the colour scheme is pink xDD, but don't worry, I won't mark your skin down for that. xDD

It's a colourful and adorable layout, but the links are light and fade into the background, making it hard to navigate. More & more ppl are using FF now, and it the border doesn't stretch with the text in FF (probably due to the fact that you've made the height of the base div layer in which the welcome message appears fixed).

It's on the whole simple and nice, but you can try having a light colour as the background of your text or change the border and links to suit your image's rainbowish theme so it feels more whole and together.

In your credits, you mentioned the picture is from Google, but it looks as though it was done pixel by pixel by a graphic designer and you simply just searched for it on google and piak it on your layout most probably without permission or proper credit. Please do source down the creator and give due credit. For that I'll have to put down your score, I'm afraid, but to improvise on your skins I hope you'll consider my suggestions.

I understand that you might not have the appropriate programs, but that doesn't give you reason to use pictures without credit. In that case I won't rate you but I must let you know that it's a 1.5 stars blogskin because of the lack of effort. :) Hope to see better skins in the future! :)

kagali: Hmmm...it works fine for me on both IE & FF, do you mean the bottom border? Because there's none.
