... i'm working on a project by my self so as it sounds i have to do all the work from coding to designing.
After a days of searching with a goal of creating very creative website design i actually give up. ^^
Do the designing part is so much hassle... which color for header? , which color for each column..etc it just simple out of reach for me .
So the strategy is: instead of trying to make something unique, beautiful by my self. I decide to copy Color-scheme from whatever website that suit my need... Yup...Easy.
here's some thing for reading if somewant whose doesn't know designing start to design a website.
