switch back to the darker grey, but use that mid tone grey for the outer border instead of the very light grey you are currently using

Like so?

Protip: never use a base grey, always tint it with a color

Also, try base the design off a grid there should be some pds here that will help you http://960.gs/
and read some articles like this one http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2007/04/14/designing-with-grid-based-approach/

there are a million things i could say, but start out with good layout, think about spacing and the rest will be easy.

listen to this guy


so dan, which chromatic grey do you usually use?




color theory can never be mastered.....It takes a long time to understand it m8... dont worry

thx for the info! learn(t) something new!

Anyone know a good dark color scheme? they say this one "hurts" there eyes.

Am i the only one who gets bothered by the curved edges (lighter gray) in base and pointy edges (blue head thigy) of the upper part of the design?

I know, i know; me fail English.
