Showcase of Edgy Myspace Page Designs
The current social network boom has made blogging, chatting, creating personal pages and catching up with old friends a new way of life. Social Networks took off in the early 2000′s, and the network who made this very popular was Myspace. In the past 5 years or so Myspace has been the most popular social network and has set the trend of how we communicate and go about our daily lives. Despite the growth of facebook and twitter, Myspace remains one of the most popular social networks out there and although its not top of the class anymore, it is still a main tool for communicating and marketing. Creating custom myspace pages has allowed many freelance designers to expand their market. Almost everyone have a custom page in some sorts. Rather its a background a user download from a layout site, or if its a model or musician who hires a firm to create a fully custom page.
In this post we showcase very attractive modern myspace designs from hip hop, models, pop, and rock acts we present to you our first showcase as it relates to social networking design.
The trends that goes along with myspace design are very edgy, urban, colorful design styles. Most of them includes very cool or dark backgrounds, lighting effects, photography, and various of objects and brush tools. We put together this showcase by adding designs from a couple of different freelance designers such as: digital designz media group ( brilliance, design starz ), Darell the designer, and C-LE. Because most of these pages are changed we will not link the pages but you can still visit the actual designers portfolios to see more.

Rick Ross
Rick Ross is hip hops biggest boss in the South. Being the boss that he is, its no surprise he has to have a on top of the world feel to his myspace design. The design gives Rick Ross a mafia type of style almost in a portrait setting. The design is very rich and this shows that edgy design styles can have a elegant touch to it that works very well.
Nyna Black
This design makes use of very good photoshop objects. The photograph sets the mood with her flight attendant hat. She is on a runway with a private jet. Now this is very cool because the plane which is a cut out photoshop object also has her name on the side. This is a very good design and it shows you how cool photo editing could be.

The Digital Designz Media Group did a very good job while designing the myspace page of the most famous rapper in the world Eminem brother, Nate Mathers. Nate gave myself full creative control over the concept of this design. We added a dark city in the background with a broken into room on the forefront. Although its very hard to see the entire design but the rest of the design features a television with his music video, a storm with rain and lightening, the speakers booming with the music and other cool flash features.

My first Social Networking account was on myspace. I really loved myspace at that time because I was able to reconnect with my old friends in the U.S. As time passed by other social networking site have been popping out of nowhere. I was persuaded by my classmate to try other social networks rather than stay in myspace.
Although I have been using different social network today, I am thankful for MySpace for letting me stay in touch with my old buds living outside the country. Until now we are still in touch in different social network sites.

What I want to know is why I should care? I mean, not to say that what youve got to say isnt important, but I mean, its so generic. Everyones talking about this man. Give us something more, something that we can get behind so we can feel as passionately about it as you do.
Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.
Thankful i recently uncovered this excellent website, Another good site is Dianabol will be sure to conserve this so i can search often.
I was just having a conversation over this I am glad I came across this it cleared some of the questions I had.
