Thanks so much!
Couldn't believe how much I was on pins and needles watching the voting. There were some good efforts made by everyone.
I found sometimes that I use to spend a day just making a templates and throwing them out and starting over and throwing them out again. I now try to do is take a photo and use it as inspiration. You can do this with any photo that inspires your site. Use a color wheel or tool to extract elements that compliment your site and use them as your base. Even if it is just solid colors.
Life becomes a bit easier then.
On a side note, after spending so many hours and days on my current project with very slow but steady results (only 10 visitors a day) I feel re-energized!
Thanks Again
