Serendipity is an all-purpose John Cusack fansite, and sadly enough, it's one of the only decent sites out there in the entire world wide web - I kid you not. Try doing a search for him, and all you'll find is crap. :[ I had to make a tribute to him because he was my favorite actor at the time... I don't like him as much anymore, but I still think he's great.

version #: Two — Jan '02-??
time spent: Possibly 2-3 hours (??)
image source: John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale
comments: It's rare that I'll look at a design from (in this case) four years ago and still enjoy it. I love the image because it just looks so serendipity-esque... definitely a favorite 'oldie' of mine. I used all kinds of effects to give it a rainy look and played around with the text a bit. This layout is centered in the middle, just a box frame, (which needs an update, I know).

version #: One & ½ — (never debuted)
time spent: Possibly 2 hours (??)
image source: John Cusack and Ione Skye
comments: Decent site design, but it never got released to the public either. I used a black and white design to give it a romantic feel... along with images of John Cusack and Ione Skye. I didn't really do much on the design except add scanlines, text, and an errant brush effect (at the bottom). This is a box layout, centered in the middle of the page.

version 01; larger image unavailable
version #: One — Aug '01 (never debuted)
time spent: Possibly 2 hours (??)
image source: John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale
comments: This layout is so horrible that I won't even allow you the opportunity to see the larger version. Thankfully, this was never shown to the public, haha. It's a table layout and features fuzzy images of John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale, blended together, using the feathering technique, I assume. (I can't even remember.) It was just horrible. HORRIBLE.
