Blogging designs...

So my hubby helped me out changing things around my blog and I am not sure how I feel.  I decided I did not want pictures in the banner because then I would want him to change it all the time and that is too time consuming.  I wanted to brand it more.  So he created a very nice banner and background but I went from grey scale to color galore and I am not sure how I feel.  It might go back...

Would love some thoughts???  Good or bad be honest!    

Is it too colorful??  Hard on the eyes?  Should the background just be white or grey without all the color?  Do you miss the old one.  

Do I have a hard time with change??  Yes, and I was so super excited for him to do this and then I act all silly not sure if I like it.  

I guess we will try it out so beware there might be more changes.
