elieve it or not, this is actually a recycled layout from one that I've used before. The images were left over and, after the host retirement, I decided to use it. It was actually being used last time I updated the website as well (which is quite frequently). The reason was because I enjoy the way it's set up - nice and neat.
To repeat the last description that I had on this layout, I wanted to bring out bold colors, opposed to the soft ones that I used on the last version. I liked how the last version looked as well, but after awhile I thought it was too hard on the eyes for visitors. Plus, red and brown (shades of) are two color combinations that I thought identified with Naoto well.
This was also created while listening to the song, "How Far We've Come" by Matchbox 20. And... it fits Naoto pretty well actually in a kind of strange way... Ah well. Maybe it's just me. :)

Road to Perdition...
Yes, the name is borrowed from the movie. And I use that term loosely. Anyways, I liked how it turned out and all. It took me awhile to figure out what concept I wanted to use. It was really good for a long time until I began to think that it was starting to burn people's eyes with its lightness. The background paper-y thing is from Fenali.NET.
