I've been trying to come up with some ideas for the skin for the wordpress blog I'm building for myself. I really want something that when people see they go "Wow!". I feel totally out of ideas and inspiration. Nothings seems to be working - maybe this is just a product of having absolutely no formal training in graphic design - or maybe this is just normal. For those that wonder why this thread is titled "my headache" it's because i've got a huge one from banging my head against this brick wall.
You can try browsing themes that other people have made. Piggybacking an idea is usually less brain-intensive than trying to come up with something fresh and original from scratch.

If I recall, wordpress is pretty easy to tweak once you've found the basic template you like. It's been a couple of years since I quit using my wordpress blog, but if I can do it... pretty much anyone can.
yeah, this was awhile ago. I've figured it out now as you can see on my website. iNove is a popular theme and kinda nice. One my favorites is Inanis Glass though
When I'm lacking for inspiration, I try to look through other artists work to find some. Also, I'll to take a run or do something active just to get the thoughts flowing
