Today, I setup my blog. I designed my own background image in Photoshop using different brushes that I downloaded from Brusheezy (https://www.brusheezy.com/ lots of great brushes to choose from for FREE, which is always nice). I created multiple layers in Photoshop, and used the brushes on several of them, some with color overlays and others with gradient overlays. I then masked a few layers to get the gradient feel. When I was finished with the background image, I implemented my own CSS to get the exact look I wanted.
