i have finally come to a decision on what design i am going to use for my blog.

FINAL DESIGN
(ed: make sure i stick with this one guys!):
- a figure in the background
- clothing (ed: or lack thereof!) will change throughout the day, according to the time, day, and date, i.e. at between 9:00 to 3:15 on tues, wed, and thurs, figure will be in school uniform, holding book in one hand.
- eyes will also be closed, bloodshot, have dark circles under them, droopy, etc. according to the time of day.
- the background of the background, that is, the background on which the figure is set, will change according to the scene, i.e. bathroom, kitchen, school, train, bed, etc.
- "mood meter" will be in what currently is the "girl with flowers" banner.
- the background will basically be a swf app.
- im going to make it standard the width of the blog will be around 700px, since only 6.12% operate on 800x600 while looking at this blog.

i haven't seen anything like this on any other blogs, so im hoping thats not because its impossible to do.
bad thing is, i have to start from scratch. drawings, ps and illustrator imports, flash+actionscript(which will take ages), tablet imports, color striping, colour selection. oh, not to mention the importation of images between ps and flash multiple times. and that dreaded ps-flash colour selection. argh! you know, when want to find a good colour, so you have to go into ps, and find the colour in the colour charts, then go back to picker, copy the heaxdecimal code, and paste it back into flash to get the colour?!?!?! ergh. this is going to take AGES.
