Gameplay and getting going

I like the light yellowish backround the current design has. In my opinion, the current design is great, but that one could be good too. Just make sure you change the graphics to be more like RS, flowers just seem too out-of-place.

The new lay out looks very good and easy to navigate, as a personal choice i would prefer the menus on the left of the screen rather than the right but that is just a personal thing.
Otherwise as soon as you get a few "rs" themed things on there graphics wise it will look super slick.

Thanks for your comments, my ability to program in php is limited as well as the amount of time I can spend on it, I can not create I can simply edit and change a few things so I am relying on skins that I have the ability to change, the blog software is fairly new and the amount of skins are limited. The new skin has a cleaner look and requires less graphic play to specialise it to RS. Ninebob my friend I prefer the menu on the left myself but there were no skins that had that option that I could play with and make suitable to the blog, the idea of having navigation on the right is so that if you have a screen resolution that did not display the whole blog at least the information would be available without scrolling, using the navigation at the end of the post you can go on to the next in reverse date order or scroll right for total navigation control, I think the desire for left navigation is probably because it has always been the case, its also pretty important for ease of navigation on a commercial site. Anyone want to start a campaign to get Jagex to add flowers to Runescape like the ones in my heading, could save me some editing time. Keep the comments coming its all appreciated.

I have had a play and got rid of the flowers, a bit more Runescape like but not great any offer to make it better appreciated, I will have another play when I get some time.

I do prefer the look so will be changing all blogs over shortly, should make it look more like a Runescape blog over the coming months.

Thanks to everyone who offered to help, I have been given a great set of graphic by "Iriel Red" a fellow RuneHQre she has gone to a lot of trouble and given me a graphic that compliments my blog.

She has also given me some link to banners that will be appearing shortly.
