    Hey,

    I'm trying to make my main site look better. It already looks a lot nicer to me. For a page that I haven't fixed yet, see old page. For a page I have fixed, see Cajun Seasonings.

    Can you help me with the colors? See the vertical towers on the left and right? I want to find out what color number that background is on the sides so that I can blend the adsense.

    Thanks for helping.

    :p

    Thanks for helping!

    I don't think that's it. ffbef is too white I think. I applied it. Check it out if you want to. Any other idea?

    Oh yeah, can you please tell me how to leave rep too?

    Thanks!

    That's getting closer. A little darker and I think it's a done deal. Take a look.

    Thanks for showing me the rep thing. lol I can't believe I never saw that scale. Rep given to both of you guys.

    :D

    The outside of those boxes have a slightly darker border. You could try the number eae8d4 and see how that goes. I just copied your page into photoshop and used the color picker in that area. Those are the two color codes that it finds in those towers. I think you only applied the new color code to the Border and not the background also.

    Yeah that should be the exact match. I can't see any color difference on my screen. Looks good. I like the site by the way. I hope you do well with it.

    This isn't a blogger template. It's based on an html theme for a static site. Sorry, don't know anything about Blogger templates.

    Thanks for the nice words guys! I really love the look of the site now. I will be devoting a lot more time to it now.

    I thought about making the links green to match the green on the site. Then I thought I wanted to leave it that blue to see what happened. So far, this color combo/ placement is working very well. Ctr has climbed by about 300% since this redesign. ;)

    :p:p:p
