Do it do it do it!

Same here! I wish I had the energy to make a layout archive. But maybe now I can since I am happier with what I've been making recently. ^^;

Same here Destinie, lol.

I did haven a name thought out for if I ever did decide to make one but now I can't remember what it is. *sadface* I gotta have a name before I make it. >:(

Mine needs to be updated...i think its about a year behind but here it is: Paradigm Shift.

Still need to go back through and add some info and the likes... and a link to my credits page. Guess i have another domain project to do this summer.

Just found this thread--my layout archive is called Disguises. You can see all the layouts I've made for WMW.org since 2004 there (including the epic fail that is version 4). xD

I finally made a layout archive! :D

[Robin]

@Crystal YAY! SO. MUCH. AMAZINGNESS ^o^ I like how it's one page but still very, very browse-able, and features all your websites!

It looks fab, Crystal! Congrats on getting it finished. :)

I'd forgotten about this topic, so I'm just going to plug mine while I'm at it: here. On tumblr, for convenience.

Thanks Robin and Emma! :D

@Emma: I always think it's neat how people get tumblr to work for a layout archive. I don't have a clue how it works but showcasing all the images like that looks awesome! :D

@Crystal: I think the Tumblr layout archives are cool, too! As far as I know, doing a Tumblr layout archive would be like this:

- Take screenshots
- Upload them to Tumblr, one shot per post
- Tag each post with whatever categories you need (year it was made, site it was made for, colors, etc.)
- Use one of the free grid themes you can install through Tumblr to display it (you can also make one of your own)
- Use the various tag links to plug into your navigation ("Layouts by Site," "Layouts by Year," "Layouts by Color," etc.)

(Let me know if there's an extra step or two to this--this is just from my experience working with Tumblr pages ^_^)
