Description
Name:
I'm a JEANS kind of person
Description:
The title says it, really.
A layout featuring jeans/denim patterns, zippers, stitches and rivets in the fairly gender neutral colours of blue & yellow with hints of terracotta-red.
I don't know if this layout will be usable for boys/men, but I sure do hope I managed to stay away from all too girlish stuff (okay, except for the florishes in the header maybe ;) ) and you won't feel emasculated by using it :p .

Images & Code
The images and code are uploaded to my own accounts. If you want to avoid bandwidth getting exceeded it is recommended to upload both images and code (see options 2 and 3 above) to your own servers.
If you upload the images to your own account, don't forget to change the URL's in the code!
Step 1: Basic Codes
Bellow you can find the basic codes, i.e. WITHOUT HEADER, for the layout. Paste these codes in the "Custom stylesheet" box.

Step 2: Add a header
As mentioned, adding the basic codes to your stylesheet box will yield you a layout WITHOUT a header. You will need to paste another portion of code to the BOTTOM of your stylesheet to have a header:
#header {
width: 650px;
height: 200px;
background: url(URL TO YOUR CHOSEN HEADER) no-repeat top center;
}
#beta {
margin: -255px 0 0 0;
}
