| version 20.0 (July 14, 2007-Current) |
 This
layout was made by Sara. This layout was pretty special to me
as it was the first time we featured a sleek design. Sara really hit the nail on the head
in terms of the vision I had for this layout. This layout also marks a time of change for the site
as the original mischa-forums was closed and a new affiliation with FanForum was born. During this time, we also
opened the mischa-b YouTube channel. It was difficult to let this one go cause I really loved everything about it. |
| |
| version 19.0 (April 27, 2007-July 13, 2007) |
 This
layout was made by Sara. Summer was upon us
so I felt it was time for a summery-layout. We'd also spent quite a while with pink-themed layouts
so I thought it was time for a drastic change which ended up fiting perfectly with the photos used
from Mischa's SAFE campaign. This layout also marks the first time boxes were used on a layout. |
| |
| version 18.0 (November 14, 2006-April 26, 2007) |
 This
layout was made by Jasmine. In what is
probably our "prettiest" layout to date, Jasmine went all out on the funky brushes
and textures. This layout was also very popular with visitors of the site so it
remained online for many many months. It also marks only the third time a designer
was used to create a layout for the site. |
| |
| version 17.0 (July 22, 2006-November 13, 2006) |
 This
layout was made by Janine. It was kind of an extension of the previous layout
as the colour base was still black and white but Janine opted to thrown in shades
of pink and purple for contrast. This layout also marks the first time photos of
Mischa were used at an event rather than shots from a photo shoot. It was also the
first time we used a full size side bar. |
| |
| version 16.0 (April 3, 2006-July 21, 2006) |
 This
layout was quite a drastic change from previous versions of the site.
It was a predominantly black and white layout featuring a quite edgy photo
shoot of Mischa. The layout was used for only a few months as I guess people
tend to get tired of b/w layouts quicker than other colour schemes. That said,
it was still a fun change for the site. |
| |
| version 15.0 (December 5, 2005-April 2, 2006) |
 I
wanted something totally different from the last layout which I think I
accomplished with this one. The colors are softer and the photos more fun
rather than sexy. And its something a little different. The photos used
are from Mischa's ad campaign for JC. I'm fairly pleased with how it came
out and it seemed to get a positive reaction from visitors. |
| |
| version 14.0 (August 31, 2005-December 4, 2005) |
 This
gorgeous complex layout was made by my friend Jules.
I usually prefer to make my own layouts, but in this case, I was so busy
that I didn't have the time which was delaying the relaunch of the site.
Plus Jules is so incredibly talented that when she showed me what she had
done, I couldn't say no. Most of the photos used are from a shoot by Robert
Erdmann for Strut magazine. This was one of the most popular layouts which
is why it stayed up for 3 months. |
| |
| version 13.0 (May 16, 2005-August 30, 2005) |
 I
wasnt thrilled with the way this layout came out but I needed to get rid
of the previous one already so I just used it. The colors were nice but
nothing I havent used before. The photos were from a shoot by for Marie
Claire magazine |
| |
| version 12.0 (March 28, 2005-May 15, 2005) |
 This
layout started out as a temp layout while I was rebuilding the site on
a new server. After a couple days I made it a full layout by adding the
navigation but it was still psuedo-temp since there was no side bar. I
wasn't crazy about this layout, but I loved the colors. The shoot is by
Dan Flood and I adore the photos. This stayed up longer than anticipated
due to a lack of time to create a new more complete layout. |
| |
| version 11.0 (January 26, 2005-March 27, 2005) |
 I
adore this layout, its definately one of my favorites. When I first put
it up, I wasn't sure if I really liked it. But the longer it was up, the
more I
liked it. In fact, I still like it now which
is somewhat rare for me. It's a little different then my usual style and
I thought the colors were pretty original. I loved the peach/green combo.
The photos used are from Instyle magazine which was a gorgeous shoot. |
| |
| version 10.0 (January 6, 2005-January 25, 2005) |
 Another
temp layout (stupid server problems). The photos are all promos for season
2 of The OC. I had actually started work on this layout months ago and
I was planning to use
it to
celebrate
the
begining
of the secong season of The OC. I never finished it up though because I
didn't really like it. But when I needed a quick temp layout, I pulled
it out of my archives and fixed it up a bit. It's nothing special but it
served its purpose for the few weeks it was up. |
| |
| version 9.0 (November 22, 2004-January 5, 2005) |
 I
spent a long time creating this layout because I needed something that
was good enough to follow Janine's awesome layout. I really liked the way
this one came out, but it got very mixed reviews. People either loved it
or hated it. I think I got the most feedback regarding this layout. I'm
not sure what about it inspired such "controversy." The photos are from
a shoot by David Needleman for Jezebel magazine. |
| |
| version 8.0 "Wow" (September
29, 2004-November 21, 2004) |
 This
was the first layout that wasn't created by me. This magnificent layout
is credited to my friend Janine. The photos used are from a shoot by James
White for British GQ magazine. I loved everything about this one, the blend,
the criss-cross lines, and the color. Janine also coded the site into php
(from html). This layout got such great feedback it was up for almost 2
months. |
| |
| version 7.0 "Classic Elegance" (August 12, 2004-September
28, 2004) |
 This
layout got great feedback, I loved the elegance of it and the contrast
of the bright torquoise with the grays. The photos used are from a shoot
by Lionel De Luy. This is the second layout featuring a shoot of his. As
usual, the graphics were made with Adobe photoshop and the layout and coding
with Dreamweaver |
| |
| version 6.0 "Temp Layout" (July 21, 2004-August 11,
2004) |
 This
was a temp layout that was put up for a few weeks while the main server
was having a few problems. I actually don't really like this layout so
much,
but I wanted to get something up so I threw this together in about 20 minuted.
Its not horrible, but I'm glad I only needed it up for a short time. The
photos used are from a photoshoot by Diego Uchtiel for Elle Magazine. |
| |
| version 5.0 "Pretty in Pink" (June 14, 2004-July 20,
2004) |
 This
was definately my favorite layout so far. It uses 4 pictures from a Lionel
de Luy photoshoot that I loved. It was my first attempt at brushes
and in my opinion, a pretty good one. I also went with a different look
for the side bars which I thought was cool. And of course, I loved the
pink.
I probably would've kept this layout up for longer, but we had server problems
the whole site needed to be uploaded again. Since I was doing all that
work
already, I decided a new layout was in order. |
| |
| version 4.0 "Summer Fun" (May 18, 2004-June 13, 2004) |
 This
fourth layout was made with Adobe Photoshop using outtakes from the YM
December
2003 photoshoot, by Jonathan Skow. With the start of summer, the previous
layout seemed too dark and I wanted something that just screamed "summer." So
her we have Summer Fun. I liked the way the top banner came
out. Simple, but nice looking. Because of the simplicity, it got a boring
real fast. So I began work on version 5. |
| |
| version 3.0 "Total Perfection" (April 10, 2004-May
17, 2004) |
 This
third layout was made with Adobe Photoshop using 1 photo from the Los Angeles
Magazine shoot. That magazine shoot is my absolute favorite and I wanted
to incorporate them into a layout, but I wasn't get a nice looking blend
fro a few photos. So I came up with the idea to just use 1. I think it
came
out pretty good. I called it "Total Perfection" since there are
no other words to describe how awesome Mischa looks in the photo. This
layout
got a lot of positive feedback, but with the start of summer, I decided
it was time to lighten up, and so started version 4.0 |
| |
| version 2.0 "Eternal Laughter" (February 26, 2004-April
9, 2004) |
|
 This
second layout was made with Adobe Photoshop using photos from a Patrick
Fraiser photoshoot. This was really only a partial redesign since I used
the same basic layout as "Startling Revelations" just with new
graphics. I loved this design because the photoshoot is one of my favorites.
I called it "Eternal Laughter" since Mischa looks so happy
in the photos and the layout seemed very light and fun. I decided that
it
was time for a darker layout so onto version 3.0
|
| |
| version 1.0 "Startling Revelations" (January 11, 2004-February
25, 2004) |
|
 This
was the first layout I made for Mischa-B. I made it in Adobe Photoshop
using pictures from the Hollywood Life magazine photoshoot. This version
was named Startling Revelations because the design seemed somewhat dramatic.
I really enjoyed this design, but got bored of it pretty quickly since
I had been looking at it for months while creating the site.
