After looking around in the Layouts tab, you might find a lot of things you like. A background/layout, custom cursor, how to embed music, so forth. Most of it is a shared code you copy and paste into your "about me" section. Looks like you probably already tried some of that (unless you made that green and black theme on your own, idk.) As for anything beyond that, I can't really say. It looks like a lot of people either go crazy and make insanely ugly pages, or manage to find well-matching features. Or somewhere in between. It's all preference.

But one one tip I can give is:

With some trial and error, you might be able to find out what some of this code means and could edit one you like to be a little different. For example, the one I used for my general page layout - the teal and bright green borders and text - was originally purple and green and had a smaller font. I found the parts of the code that referred to the color and font size and changed them to my liking. Another example, I liked the cursor I found, but noticed that the GIF URL it referred to wasn't cropped to the edge of the image, so the "corner" of the arrow was off. It had a large "hit-box", if you will. So I downloaded that GIF, cropped it, and reuploaded it to a image hosting site for a more accurate cursor.
