Ben Davis is a freelance web developer based in Derby who loves creating beautiful, content-driven websites. He uses only open source products to power his creations to show that with just a little imagination, endless curiosity and a healthy dose of caffeine anything is possible.Over the last few days I’ve been doing a little tinkering with my blog layout, trying to find something to elevate it a little, make it more eye-catching and just generally more aesthetically pleasing.
I think I’ve succeeded with this background! Once I’ve finished making all the files I will put these up for download in a variety of different resolutions to suit all desktops.
I made them using the GNU Image Manipulation Program, making specific use of the motion blur filter and the erasing colours to transparency with a gradient.
And a purple one for you mesanna – hope it’s the right purple!
Edit: these files can now be found in the artwork section here.
Aw thanks
(It looks good!)
