does this make my blog look ugly?

i have tons of link urls under "links"... it goes down the page..

does it look fine.. because i see blogs with 100 times more links on the main page then i do..

i want to get some opinions..

scroll down and look to the right.

Looks good to me.

**florida13** · 08-31-2008, 04:43 PM

so it wouldnt matter how many links is there?

**aaronaskew** · 08-31-2008, 04:50 PM

I think it's fine, but the more links you have, the less likely people will be to look on that side of the page....I think it looks funny having some link title starting with a Capital letter and others not. Other than that, it fine, and I wouldn't worry, because other sites' links can be much, and I repeat much, more annoying.

Hey Florida,
No I don't think it would matter to much but as posted above too many will stop people looking down that side of the page as much, and also the links do need capitals for each one to make them look the same.

no its not ugly..it looks good..

**florida13** · 08-31-2008, 09:14 PM

what about this..

you know the toolbar with the links.. about, forum, contact?

should i create one tab for affiliates... links??

and have it more cleaned out on the side... maybe only add people who pay??

It's well organized, though I think you should conform the links as someone mentioned. Perhaps you should make them all capitalized or all lower cased.

**florida13** · 09-01-2008, 12:35 AM

links are now all capitals.

so should i make a tab on the toolbar for links? or just keep on adding them down where they are at now??

its not ugly but it just looks like a basic blog, which does'nt stand out from most blogs on the internet. A little touch which could be used to improve website is aligning the navigation links to the center instead of being aligned to left.

Is it just me or are all of his pictures all pixelated? Looks terrible...

I think your writing could use some work but the look of the blog seems nice to me... I think it looks good format wise.

It's not ugly at all, I think it really works for the content on the page. One suggestion I can make is to add a line-height of 1.5em to the copy on the page this will help it read easier. Also you might want to try to validate your code to ensure the site views the same across all browsers.

Hey Florida,
Also just an idea I had would be as you get more text on your blog, add a back to top code so that people don't have to scroll all the way to the top again they just click that link and bam they're back at the top again.

The space beside image is not good... you can actually make the image texts to get rid of that space..

The site doesnt look ugly but the colour combination can be improved, I suggest use light brown for text.
The orange bar on top also looks a bit flashy.

**Cheshire_cat** · 09-02-2008, 07:43 AM

It does not look ugly at all, but I have to say that all I see is the "page load error" message.

**johnlloyd** · 09-02-2008, 07:54 AM

I really like the header image and your adding some images to every post which is good, I really like it overall!

**Cheshire_cat** · 09-02-2008, 02:00 PM

I think it looks good for the kind of site that you are wanting to do. I will add though, seeing how I am a Miami fan

, that be prepared to write an entry on how you guys lost your second game of the season.
