Messing with some ideas for a forthcoming theme.

very nice, but is it aimed at being "dark" like this?
Tumblr?
@Julien: This is just an experiment for an alternative version. The main theme option (finished) is much lighter (grey diagonals on white, basically).
@Chris: No, not Tumblr.
Yum.
I know EXACTLY how you are gonna pull this off ;)
Looks incredible Colly, well done. Will the 'selected' tab + content area be a little lighter in colour and have less texture / faint lines in the final?
@Tyce: Yeah, I think you're right. At the moment it's all sitting under one big texture uberlayer.
Love this. Very nice use of tones and textures.
I would apply these pinstripes only to the slightly darker area.
Agree with Thomas, looking good though.
@colly: Good deal, looking forward to the finished version.
Very cool. It's always nice to see good texture work.
bloody lovely.
Lookin' good, Simon!
Sexy patterns are sexy.
Wow, this is gorgeous!
Amazing. I don't know how you've done it but it looks similar to a lot of sites out there but, at the same time, totally fresh. Weird.
Is that the top of Greg Wood's head?
That's what my hair looks like! I love the colors at the top
@Dan: Yes!
WordPress theme?
Brilliance. Great work. As mentioned, diagonals could possibly be toned down on the lighter portion, but works like this as well.
