In time for Halloween because it does have that messy, random and scary feel to it &#8211; don&#8217;t you think? The design is wholly unexpected &#8211; colors of October Green, Blood Shine Red and Mildew Blue. Stacks of shadowed crumpled paper make up the main container with a sidebar &#8211; which is the common trend in personal blog layouts.</p><p><a href="http://fearlessflyer.com/main/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/argyles-drudge.jpg"><img src="http://fearlessflyer.com/main/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/grunge-1.jpg" alt="grunge-1" title="Full Size Preview - Click to Enlarge" width="576" height="758" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-821" /></a></p><p>Argyle’s Drudge has a very narrow content area of only 746 pixels. I chose to stay away from the standard 960 grid design because I find that grunge layouts don’t seem to play well with it. Speaking of grid based design, find this <a href="http://fearlessflyer.com/2009/10/taming-the-grid-align-your-wordpress-posts-perfectly-using-php-and-css/">article</a> about lining up your posts perfectly within the grid. As I was saying &#8211; the whole point of grunge is random and spontaneous &#8211; conforming to a grid just doesn’t fit.</p><h3>More Details:</h3><p>The pale blue watercolor splash background is courtesy of my <a href="http://backgrounds.mysitemyway.com/free-background-image/29/website-wallpaper-id/20/style-id/1/watercolor-grunge/pale-blue-pine/">Backgrounds etc</a>. The beautiful hand sketched fonts is known as <strong>“Fail Font”</strong> and can be downloaded from <a href="http://www.dafont.com/fail.font">DaFont.com</a>. Note that since “Fail Font” is free &#8211; it’s the perfect opportunity to use Cufon in your coding. Cufon is the technology that enables you to use any kind of font in your pages (<a href="http://fearlessflyer.com/2009/10/cufonize-your-pages-how-to-add-cufon-to-your-web-design/">read article</a>).</p><p>Argyle’s Drudge is completely free to use for your next theme of choice. May it be WordPress, Blogger, Typepad: all I ask in return is for you to follow my updates in <a href="http://twitter.com/mks6804">Twitter</a> or leave a comment below.</p><p><strong>Download <a href="http://fearlessflyer.com/downloads/argyles-drudge.zip">Argyles Drudge</a>.</strong></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://fearlessflyer.com/2009/10/free-psd-grunge-blog-layout/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>2</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
