This section provides screenshots and descriptions of the past two layouts. Clcik on the thumbnails to view larger snapshots.
Layout Version 1: Blue Metallic

That was the first layout I ever created. Well, in fact, I downloaded a free template from somewhere on the Net and modified it to fit my needs. It's basically made of three tables-two for the left and right menus and one for the content. It also features a searchbox and a "nude raider free" sign. The banner on the top left of the page is a simple graphic done with Paint Shop Pro. Note that my site was called "Croftmania's Tomb Raider Site" back then.
Layout Version 2:
Shades of Blue

As time passed and my site grew bigger, I decided to make a new layout because there wasn't enough room for all the links to fit in. So, I used a slicker navigational system with folding and unfolding menus.
Everything in this layout is blue - dark, light or normal. The header is a lot better, showing my progress in using Paint Shop Pro. The layout has a top menu with some important links and a left javascript menu for navigation. The bad thing is, that the letters in the menu are not as legible as they ought to be. The title of the site is now "Tomb Raider 4U" and I'm definitely going to keep it.
The current version is a tasteful, yet simple blend of shades of gray.
Like the layouts you see? I can give you the HTML code if you want to! Just
e-mail me. I don't even require a link back (although it would be most appreciated).
