I have one on DeviantArt, but I stopped updating it as I would run into the same problem mentioned in the thread - screenshots getting taken down because it contained a character or celebrity in it, and the whole social networking vibe that was incompatible with what I wanted in a layout archive platform.

These tumblr archives look really good! I am now considering making one, after seeing everyone's sites. I would probably go with wordpress though, as I'm rather fond of it already.

So I finally found the time to go through my old files and I turned my old tumblr into my new layout archive. It's quite practical and I don't mind the simple layout.

That's impressive, tox! I like the Betty Boop and Abu layouts, and this one is really gorgeous. :ok:

thank you guys :) Some of those designs are 10 years old and I'm kind of impressed of my former self... sometimes I whish those times back, when I did nothing else than spending time on webdesigning :) I really don't know how I did this back then... I seem to get distracted way too fast these days.

Very nice, Tox! Those designs are taking me back to the good old days of the early 2000s with the 3d fractal blending. :heart:

Using Pinterest for graphic archiving - innovative choice, Mikari!

A choice born out of lazyness since its even more simple than tumblr XD I'm having fun with it though.

You all inspired me. Here's Tableau Vivant, my layout archive.

It's fascinating to see all these layouts presented like this. It puts things in perspective.
