Before I start to say...
Although I like designing, I still have to go for workshop or courses to further sharpen my skills. So, when my creativity runs dry, when my designing skills cant help me complete my masterpiece etc....
I will take some designs from other people. Not forgetting to credit them for their artwork and brushes. In the meanwhile, I may missed out one or few artists/designers. For my designing, I often play around with css, html and php codes. I seldom use external program to help me in designing as I find that the designing programs are not user-friendly to me. So, I started to work my design using codes.
Feel free to drop me an
email to inform me.

I like receiving emails from my readers. I will make sure that i will reply each and single emails you sent me. I check my inbox everyday, and making sure that no emails will be left unread. Dont take it too seriously if i didnt reply you. Perhaps, I¡¯m busy.
Site Information

Main Index
http://simplyjas.com
The whole idea is to make the main page looks like a noticeboard. So, I added pins and clips to the design.
Why Jay and Mike?
They are my favorites and I want them to be included in my website. The photo of Jay is taken from
Ellese, the watch brand Jay is endorsing. The photo of Mike is taken from
Dramawiki.
The playlist
Powered by
Imeem. imeem is an online community where millions of fans and artists discover new music, videos, and photos, and share their tastes with friends.
The girl at the
Surf and Navigate section is extracted from the artwork from shebid @ deviantart.
For the flowers, I used the brushes and then create the gradient effect. I really have no idea who is the creator of the brushes. If you know any, please notify me.

My blog designs
For my blog template, I used to get those ready-made templates that are available online.
But lately, I found that having my own design on my website gives me a sense of satisfactory.
So, i started from little by changing the colors scheme of the the Wordpress themes. Then,
I decided to play around with the php codes, and make the wordpress themes look the way I want it to be.
