EricBrouwer.com gets a facelift!

Welcome to the new and (hopefully!) improved site.  This site is built on the Drupal framework.  I started out with a theme by RoopleTheme, and then heavily modified it.  Only the basic layout remains the same!

The design and all the graphics are my own original creations.  I must say, I am impressed and happy with the results!  To be honest, the inspiration for the design did come to me from Mythbusters.  I originally intended for the site to have a steampunk/construction site look.  In my head, it was totally sweet.  But then I was working on a site at work, and realized that's where the idea was coming from...

Sooooooo, I started thinking of other things that are related to projects, works in progress, etc.  Then it hit me; blueprints.

All the graphics are my original works. For a technical guy, I got sKilLz, right? The ericbrouwer.com "sign" and all the stains were done in Photoshop CS3 and the "What I'm Working On" text was done in Illustrator CS3. The only graphical elements that were borrowed from others were two images of rust, and one picture of paper. These three images were used as overlays to create textures. If I can find the sites again where I found the images, I'll post links to them.

Anyway, I hope you like it!
