Sure thing! I can give you a gray/dark-ish/low contrast background, no problem. And the round user images aren't a problem either.

Otherwise, I definitely should make a list of questions (you aren't the first to ask), but things that would be helpful would be if you had a background image in you mind you wanted me to build around or if you had particular colors/favorite colors you wanted me to use.

I can also do different types of layouts. There's the very traditional version, like what you have already. But I can also:
- Make the timeline tall
- Add divider lines between days
- Give some overlay and make backgrounds blurry
- Have the dashboard slide out from the side on hover
- Change fonts to Monospace, Times New Roman, or any other web safe font
- Remove your friends or fans spaces and center your dashboard (v minimal look)
- Or... whatever else you may think of!

If you want to just keep it simple, we can totally do that. I just want you to be aware of some of the options we can do with Plurk. c:
