I like the site. The colors blend nicely. I say this all the time, I don't really like to use green in my designs, but you seems to have pulled it off well. Did you design it yourself? Very nice.

What engine is it running on? Looks like Wordpress.

It looks misaligned to me.
You search box is to big.

It seems to be a problem in IE6, and probably below. I will fix it in the morning.

The design is one of Adam's SEO css pages. I did compile a few wordpress pages to go off of as far as design. But it runs CutePHP News for CMS.

I tend to avoid statements like that anywhere. It makes you seem like a jerk....

The introduction is really pretty cheesy and unnecessary.

Other than that, looks ok.

Actually, it should be:

That's one of my layouts? That don't look like one of my layouts. You sure? Y'all be fakin' the funk on that, I think.

Seriously, I'm not sure what I think of it. I find it a bit hard to read because the text is somewhat light (make it black for contrast's sake, and you won't lose any of the aesthetics.) The same thing goes for the header: the green is too dark against the black. A light green would be cool there.

You're missing a space here (at space least). You're also missing the email address. That might be kind of important.

I like the layout overall, since it's nice and simple, and the brain picture itself is cool. And once you throw some original content up in this piece, it'll be something cool to visit every couple of days or so. You just need to tweak the layout some more and iron out the bugs, that's all.

im getting a big white space between your header and the main content. maybe after the "previous page - next page" link use something to break the flow of 'white' maybe a <hr> or an image or banner or something.

nice layout and color scheme, not that much different than every other blog out there but not bad, i like the color of the header

**HighVoltage123** · 10-17-2007, 09:34 AM

I like the header image

I have fixed the search box problem, but I cannot seem to find out what is causing the issue in older versions of IE. This of course is related to what FastReplies said, on how its broken apart. Any suggestions?
