Sparklette: Halloween Edition
Sparklette has turned dark!
This being Halloween and all, I thought it would be fun to do up a Halloween edition of Sparklette. You know, transform the usual purple layout into something spooky.
So, I came up with this:

Welcome to the dark side! We have spooky storm clouds! Spooky mist! Even the dreamy neuschwanstein castle has turned spooky. I was going for the whole haunted castle look! Be sure to view it in full size!
I meant to use the black layout for this whole Halloween week, I really did. But time wasn’t on my side. I had just enough time to design the piece but not enough to actually implement it on the blog.
Personally, I really like how this whole thing turned out and thought it would be quite a waste if you guys didn’t get to see it. So, there you go! Meanwhile, I’ll just settle for wearing a black witch’s pointed hat.
Happy Halloween!

Beautiful transformation! That castle sure does look creepy! :D!
I would’ve replaced the cookies in the Vistors thing on the side with maybe spiders or bugs or something. ^____^!
Good job. :D

Wow. That’s very nicely designed. Would’ve been really great if you had managed to implement it on your blog.
Thanks for the spooky holiday-themed Ping.sg logo too!

It’s a pity you didn’t implement it – looks awesome :D
Can I say I prefer the Halloween look over the current pinkish one? :P

I happen to think the black design actually looks better than the usual purple one, but that’s just me…
