I think you have too many ads.. you could probably get away with it if your site was really popular but right now it might stop people from signing up because they can also use blog services without the many ads..

Maybe the font a little smaller and the CSS a little more professional

It looks like a major site :)

well i have only spent about $100-115 on the coding of the whole site so far, so its not the best CSS lol but for what i payed its deff worth it ;) and like i said as i get more money i upgrade it to be better ! im hoping to open it soon !

and im hoping it becomes a major site :)

I couldn't stay on the site long enough to review any aspect of the site itself, but from a visual perspective I would say there are some very important aspects of the design that need to be rethought.


Links should never be the same color as text. There needs to be consistency for people to discern between links and content.
Element separation could/should be more defined. Navigation from content, elements from other elements.
There's no theme. There is large text in a few bright colors all separated by dotted lines. In some cases that's enough to work, but not by itself and not in the manner it's displayed in.
It's not a resource site, and that's not obvious. It took me a while to figure out what the site was when I couldn't find any layouts or comments.


Don't take any of it personally. You don't learn anything from complements, and it's the brutally honest people I tend to listen to myself.

i agree with what you say 100%

but like i said i don't code it, and i only update it when i am able to get money. all of your suggestions will be put into play next update ;)

Make the header look more professional & maybe change the font? Its too in-your-face?

But good job! Love the idea of a blogging site!
