ahh i see your using grey matter. I was thinking of switching to that myself. What cha think of it?

What is grey matter?

Its a CMS that looks pretty damn close to your website layout... I cant find the exact site i saw yesterday (since i cleared my history), but heres a 'far-off' but simple example link. The one i saw looked damn like a clone of yours, cept powered by grey matter.

Grey matter stole my design :Q

Yeah mine was inspired by a site that looked very similar to that one. Didn't realize everyone and their mother used that design. Oh well .. I like it.

Suggestion: Learn CSS, it is required learning if you want to do anything more than very simple page design. I don't know what site you got your ideas from, but they were likely using CSS, for example where your words are spaced out l i k e t h i s for effect, that renders the content useless to anything but a human reading it. A search engine will not find the word deslocke in the text "d e s l o c k e". The css property letter-spacing can make it look like that, but without altering the content itself.

Go! 🙂

I know I could do it with CSS styles and I might switch over if I get around to it .. but really I don't need any search engines to find my site.

It's not about search engines, it's about using the right tool for the job, and CSS is it.
