I bought a directory a couple months ago and really put it to the side as I concetrate on one of my site's , particularly my blog. I was thinking of putting that directory to use and add it to my blog but somehow it doesnt sound right by adding link directory to my blog. I think the reason is that I haven't seen a link directory in my blog. I was thinking of using the link directory instead of a blogroll? -Alex http://www.wslounge.com/
It's a pretty clean layout! I think you need more colors.. at the moment.. the only color in there are the orange RSS images. Maybe try adding a really nice WS LOGO (in color of course, maybe something glossy, web 2.0-esque). It'll make the site look 10000x times better!
It is a simple boring blog. What else is there? Zero design elements. Looks like a generic Word Press installation. Adding a directory won't be worth anything unless you get your PR up. Your main page is PR3, but all the internal pages are PR 0. The only worthwhile page to have a link is the main page.
I think the website looks very nice. I like the simple design, a little color wouldn't hurt though as suggested above.
