:lol:@ jamie  
whay do you mean by flogging a dead cat?:lol:  
i don’t like the wood texture btw. and notepad paper could be found as a template for hundreds of sites. i suggest changing it and starting from scratch;)  
or keep the notepaper, it’s the wood that’s making it horrible

instead of drawing on those pages in paint, you should do it in real life and scan it in…

I second that.

Wood textue = bad.

Take a picture of a real desk and perhaps build around that. I don’t think the idea has been overdone. Yeah similar things have been done before, but its how you claim the project and personalise it, give it your identity and prove to us that the notepad thing can be done better 😛

The wood texture looks bad, it makes me .  
The text on the paper looks nearly as bad, i’d recomend you start from scratch.
