I didn't want to do anything radical, just a quick fix to reverse the signs of aging... without down time or risk of complications, if you know what I mean...and if you've ever inadvertently messed up the coding on your blog, you do.
Hence the weekend facelift and a slightly new look for Golf Girl's Diary. I'll probably continue to tinker around with it for a while, and eventually I'll go for the extreme makeover with a board certified designer, but for the time being I'm getting used to the new look and feeling quite... rejuvenated. Plus, I had an amazing amount of fun with the color selection tool I used.
If you love color, you'll love COLOURlovers. It's a kind of social network where members "create and share colors, palettes and patterns to nurture their ongoing love affair with color" and it's built around a powerful suite of color scheme and pattern generation tools. You can generate your look from a photo or illustration too. I got the color scheme for this blog by uploading my Golf Girl Media logo.
When you come up with a color palette you can name it and share it with others. The funniest part was went I did a search for golf and came up an awesome selection of eclectic color schemes. Below are just a few of hundreds of golf related palettes:

Yes, I'm totally in love with COLOURlover.
