    Very nice, neat and clean website design, but you should add popular post gadget and your Facebook profile widget in the sidebar.

    Overall, you theme looks clean and professional and you site is easy to negatived with nice formatted. Nice job.

    However, I am a visual person maybe a little picky sometimes :) I noticed that your header color with theme doesn't match. I understand that you are trying to use the color of african on the word "africans" and the color of russia on the word "russia". It's a great idea. However, the header color doesn't match the color of the theme. Maybe you can change a little bit to make them matches better? Also, I think you can make the header a little bigger.



    The site's loading took a while on my end. I am not sure if it's because I am in China. But there some plugin you can use to speed up the loading time if you are using WordPress.

    Agree with Roger Pelt, you should add the popular post on the site.

    Hope it helps.

    Hi Jian Lin, I'm very thankful for your post. Just what I needed and will try to make the necessary adjustments to make the site look even better.
    Yes, I use WordPress, so can you advise the plugin to use to speed up the loading time? It loads quite fast enough here in Russia but I will also check with my host.

    You can try W3 Total Cache By Frederick Townes . I am using it for both of my business and personal sites. I have lots of images in my personal site, it helps me speed up my site :)

    Hi,

    i suggest you create a home page which should appear as the main page with some introduction about your blog/website.

    Your articles should be linked from blog directory to give better look otherwise it will just look a blog rather than a website.

    Hmmm..A little confusing. At the moment, I have a pop-up screen describing what the website is about in addition to having a forum (with a seperate homepage). Will having another homepage not be one too many?

    Can you explain what you meant by linking articles from blog directory?

    Thanks.
