Purple Boxes

21 August 2004 at 9:27 pm

Hello! This is what this design will look like. A very simple imageless one, with some nice purple boxes. My mum's favourite colour is purple. My rule for birthday/Christmas presents is "go for something purple" - flowers, jewellery, chocolates, cards, whatever. Make it purple and she'll like it. You will need to change the USERNAME bits to your username, and the %%PREV%% and %%NEXT%% to lowercase.
