Cute design idea although personally i find the blue a little bit cold in its shade, shades around - #3BB9FF - #38ACEC could maybe give it a warmer feel like a nice warm sunny day  ;)

Good idea.

I'd make it less wide, and work a bit on the grass on the bottom.

KahneFan

BG changed and shrank it from 95% to 85%. As for "work a bit", do you think it should be longer, shorter, thinner, thicker, more of a clear single blade view as apposed to patches...?

First of all the blue background continues about 10px below the grass. The gras should stretch to the end of the screen.
The backgroundcolor is a bit bright.

the backgorund is a bit bright, the colour codes i gave you are a bit too warm - try bringing it down a bit to around #8ccdf2 and just play about till you get the right balance, blue is a hard colour to work with as you can be too cold or too warm and takes a bit of trial and error

think with the grass you want how you said more singular blade type of look to make it look a bit more realistic

(it dont envy you with this design getting the colours and the grass right lol)

KahneFan

OK, picked a mid tone-bright blue, gave the grass a more singular look and sucked the bottom of the site up.

The blue is a touch on the bright side, but afterall it's  supposed to be a light hearted theme. Let me know if it looks too bright though.

that looks better although the blades of grass look a bit sparse, maybe shorter 1 in the gaps between the 1s that are there now

KahneFan

OK, I've added more grass to cover the whole span.

I was trying to figure out how to put a sun in there, but I couldn't find a good way, other than the "on" icons :D

I tried adding a "lit" background behind the clouds, but it didn't look right.
