welcome your suggestions

now it's in early stage, I'm writing some articles into it

Pros:

Good looking images (plus I really like the borders)
Easily readable content, nice font
Good information

Cons:

It looks somewhat bland and unstructured (maby more use of color around the outside)
The logo does not look striking because of the fade on the top (it sort of mellows it out)

Overall, I think its a great site for content. I would try to make the design more visual, at least on the top and bottom. Good work.

I don't know. The plain look seems to be the norm now for wordpress type sites.

I think it is good

Thanks very much for your earnest review, I'll consider the design carefully

I like the borders, and how easy it is on the eyes... But on my computer, the background and borders did take a while to load...

Also, for the date it only says "7/2007"; why no day?

I think it will be better if you add "home" button or at least "back", because when you read an article you cannot return to the index page... and you can just list the titles of the articles instead of using that frame after the article

I appreciate the fact that your website is looking blog -like but some people would be really interested to find some kind of menu for navigation and better control.

**alvatam123** · 08-06-2007, 10:00 AM

thanks very much, I'll adjust all the navigation system

Do you believe that with PC

with PC? I think that should be with 'a' PC or with PCs

Quote:

concentrate attention

A redundant statement.

Quote:

screen will make you very fretful no more than 1 minute;

That should be "the screen" or screens

Quote:

persist reading them over 10 hours in book

In a book or in books

Quote:

But, most people can read on screen for even more than 8 hours( a typical workday's labor time), but the contents people can read for so long must be very plain to understand or be very familiar for the readers,

I think you use the word "read" around a thousand times in this article, how about substituting a simile.

Quote:

an intricate paragraph intermingling appears

An intricate paragraph intermingling? Shouldn't that be "an intermingling paragraph?

Quote:

When an individual pay more and more time on computer screen reading, more fretful in temper gradually he/she will be, are you in this process?

pays more and more time...

"THE" more fretful in temper gradually he/she will be <--- clumsy sentence...

What kind of a writer are you? In another language?

I suggest you use the "proper" writing style... I think using words correctly is all the rage.

And stop calling yourself a writer if you refuse to use the plural forms of words.

Good Luck~!
