I need suggestions for my first blog, www.hate-windows.com. Do you like the default WordPress theme? Or is there another theme you think would look better?

Thanks for the advice,
Nathan

That theme is seen everywhere these days. If you can afford it I would pay for a custom one. The domain made me chuckle btw

This is WP (as plain as they come) default theme

Said that, you can make it better looking if you change default header part to something
more personal. I don't know, maybe like image of PC or Mac etc or you can select one
from more that thousands ready made free templates.

BTW, your right side menu dropped below your content

All it needs is a custom header with a logo or something. Nice content, i like screenshots though, especially since it's about windows, try to show as much as you can with pictures. people love pictures.

Personally, I would change the theme. It's everywhere today and makes your website look like you haven't got any effort into it at all.

That's kind of how I feel too. I'm trying out other themes on my machine locally, but I haven't found any that I like yet.

Basically I need a theme that doesn't require me to do a lot of graphics work (e.g. design headers and sidbars, etc).

If you can't find any themes that you like, you might want to take a look here:
http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/02/19...ss-themes-huh/

Basically takes you through the steps of designing a template. I used it a while back for a project of mine.

Header is plain. How about getting a logo with Tux breaking a window?

Lol. You could say that I'm "graphically challenged." After several hours of work this is all I was able to come up with.



Sad, I know. And I probably infringed on two copyrights or trademarks or something in making it too...

Maybe you could change the template into a much better one... Probably hire a designer if you got the budget? But the content looks good.. Good luck then...

Nice simple Blog though here is an advice -

Change the url structure to make it less deep. There is NO need to of keeping /categories/this-is-title kind of url's specially when you have categories like Hate windows which dont give you any SEO advantage. Remove the adsense on the right and put it on single posts at the bottom. Try to blend it more.

Keep posting continuously and you can make it a good Blog

Are you suggesting that I don't use permalinks? I actually thought that it did help with SEO.
