New Layout!
Thanks to elsiecat and my insomnia of last night I now have a new layout.
I finally figured out that it was that darn black curtain backdrop that was messing with my Photoshop-fu in trying to make headers out of any J2 panel pics. While I liked some of my results, they were all so dark and I wanted something more lively.
So since I couldn't sleep last night... I ended up doing this. And I was very happy with the results. So I played some more to adapt one of them for a new header and came up with this...

It has a transparent background so the background colors you see will depend upon the background of the page you are viewing.
Then I played around with my layout and the final results are below.

Plus I made a shiny new icon to match! And I think this is the first icon I've ever made that I really like. (Not that I've made a lot, mind you.)
And the icon image larger...
