It's so much fun.  I cannot help myself.  Like several of you out there, when I'm interested in something, there's no stopping me.  But if my heart's not there, then it's just not going to happen.  No way.

I'm still preparing for medical school exams, and translating medical documents for European clients, but to unwind, I find it incredibly soothing to grab a cup of coffee, turn up my music, and work away an evening on the graphic design program. 

Okay.  So I learned how to do this.  My blog is up. Now what?  No more use of this?   Pfff.  I decided to help out other blog buddies (whether I know you or not) and design a theme a week.

…and this week I've already made 4 themes for other bloggers!   

Four!  Which is ironic considering how long it took me to get mine up.

No.  Of course I don't charge at all.  This is just for fun, and I'll keep doing this only as long as it's fun… and if you want one too, send me an Email. I'd be happy to help.

Since you all know Tina, I'll show you hers, which we just started working on and still needs minor changes, but she wanted it up before she traveled from Argentina to Chile. 

The footer looks like this:

Tango is about elegance and passion, so I tried to keep it that way.  My favorite part is the shadow on the footer, and the sidebar, with alternating rose petals. 

Another blogger sent me an image she absolutely wanted on her footer, and we made this:

Now, I'd like to do an all-white theme that looks artsy, yet clean, where beautiful photography can stand out nicely.
