You guys seem really good at advice....
Hey, so I have this weird blog that I started in college and kinda keep out with now and then. It was a class project that started out with me mailing sweaters to people, having them take pictures in it, and then sending them to other to repeat. The problem was, I lost most of the sweaters. So I started taking them around and having interesting people take pictures in them.

Now I have this tumblr, which I like a lot because you can follow and see who follows you. But it's ugly. Any ideas of how I can make it visually more exciting? Or the layout better?

Mark Pender!

I don't mind the current look of it. Larger pictures is all I got for now.

I had one animated.gif and it ruined all the color. I guess I don't know how to do them the right way.

how often do you wash those things...

It's very yellow because it's my favorite color. ANNND I hardly ever wash them. Maybe once or twice. So lots of impressive cooties on those things.

Great idea!

I like your design as it is. Maybe considering aligning left the headers titles of the right column? Another thing, I see you use some futura fonts there, did you check out your website on many different computers? I ask that because Futura is not a operating system standard font (like arial, verdana, etc) and could look way different.

Also, try making the site's name SWEATERMEAT a little bigger.

Anyways, some optional things, overall is great! :)

The one thing that I'd change are the notes boxes. If nothing else, a little padding on them so that the text/picture don't run so closely to the edges would make them look a little nicer, I think.
