Here is a collection of small caps of all the layouts this site has seen.
The first design for Michelle Trachtenberg Online - very simple - not that great as I was just starting out on the net.
First design for Delicate - I really liked the Seventeen pictures and made them into a blend which I loved - the colours worked well and I only changed the layout so I could have more room for my ever expanding galleries.
Second design - I liked it at first - the images were from Big Hit magazine - it gave me more space for the galleries but after awhile I got bored with the plain black colours.
Third design - I loved this design. I designed this after the release of the Buffy Storyteller images and used that one as well as images from Michelle's Seventeen Prom shoot as well as an old Teen People scan and a Buffy season six promotional image. I loved the purple theme but after deciding to revamp the site I decided a new layout would be good also.
Fourth design - I came up with this design after putting the site on hiatus. I really love the colours - I experimented with a design style by adding a filmstrip which showed Michelle with her fellow Buffy cast members at the Teen Choice Awards Press Junket which matched the main image from the main event. I also made a separate gallery design to keep everything more organized.
Fifth design - I wanted a new layout for this sites one year anniversary so I made a blend using the 2003 Emmy Awards images and sent it to one of my good online friends, Emma. She messed around with brushes and effects and came up with this. I loved the Emmy images and the effects within the layout and all credit goes to Emma.
Sixth design
- This design was made for me by
Charmaine.
I grew kind of tired of the previous layout and I wanted something new and
fresh. I really admired Charmaine's sense of design so I hired her to
design something for this site. The design came out so fantastic and it
was a great new change with all the extra sections that I was adding to
the site. The images are from The Cat in the Hat premiere.
I made a frames gallery design from Charmaine's design, after awhile I grew tired of the setout I made so I designed a layout with pics from the Motorola Toys for Tots. It was very purple and I liked the setout. But I am picky so after some time I designed another layout in the same kind of setout using the 2004 Academy Awards pictures. This one doesn't use frames which I think is better.
I had the past layout up for a long time, over a year and I had been wanting something new for months. After a few attempts I designed something I really liked. The layout uses recent pictures from the Take a Gamble on Fashion event. It's very pink (it suited the pictures), I used a lot of different effects on the header and tried a slightly different setout for the content section. I hadn't had a matching gallery layout for some time which began to annoy me so when I designed the main layout I made something for gallery section too. This is my favourite design of mine so far.
Although I really liked the previous design I wanted something smaller and well less pink :) I tried to design something myself but couldn't come up with anything I liked. I had a friend who got a design from Celyn and I thought I'd take a look around her site. She had such beautiful designs that I thought she'd be perfect for a new Michelle design. I sent her some of my favourite images and she designed this amazing layout. She made a matching gallery for me as well. I really love the colours, pictures, setout... and everything is so organized. Definitely one of my favourites so far.
I loved the previous design and wanted something new so I asked Celyn to design me a layout again. The design features scans both Teen People and Teen Vogue magazines. She kept the design similar to the previous one, with the same setout which keeps everything organized. She also designed a matching layout for the gallery. The layout is stunning, definitely one of my favourites, I am sure it'll be up for awhile!
I loved the designs Celyn has done for me previously so when I saw these new pictures I asked her to do something for the site again. She came up with this gorgeous design. The pictures are from a photoshoot by Jim Wright and Michelle looks stunning in them. The setout is similar to the past ones, it's organized and easy to navigate I think. I think it came out wonderfully and it's one of my favourites.
When Celyn designed the pink layout above she also made this one for me with it. I really like the grungy pictures and it came out great.
This was designed by me. I mostly put it up as Delicate had to have Google ads and I wanted to incorporate them into the site. I really liked it.
I saw the Hollywood Life Magazine's Breakthrough Award pictures and I loved them. Michelle just looks lovely. So I had to have a design featuring them. I came across Audrey's site and asked her. She came up with this gorgeous design.
I liked the previous design but once the Candie's campaign was released I wanted to use the pictures. I made Michelle the main feature but included the other girls as well. I think it turned out nicely, I hadn't had pink in awhile and it suited the pictures that we coming out.
I really loved the last design but after awhile I wanted a change from all the pink. I'd always loved the images from the Girl's Life magazine photoshoot so I decided to use those, I really liked this one, the purple was nice.
I wanted to change some things on the site so I decided a new layout would be good also. I asked Kathy to design this for me awhile ago so I decided to finally put it up. I've never had green in a layout before and I think it makes for a nice change. I love the pictures too.
I wanted a really amazing design for the sites re-launch so I e-mailed Celyn who has designed several layouts for me previously. I sent her images from the Sarasota Film Festival portraits session and she came up with this!! It is really gorgeous! It's definitely my favourite so far!
The previous design had been up for a long time, I was reorganizing the site and adding a new section so I wanted a new layout. I had designed something but then I saw some Gossip Girl candids and just had to use then. They feature Michelle in a rainy New York filming her role on Gossip Girl. I think the purple makes a nice change and it came out nicely.
